Directions
| Step 1 | |
| Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. | |
| Step 2 | |
| Add neufchâtel cheese and yogurt to a bowl and beat with a hand mixer until fluffy and well blended. Set aside. | |
| Step 3 | |
| In a separate bowl, beat butter and sugar with a stand or electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla and mix until well combined. | |
| Step 4 | |
| In another bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. On low speed, add half the flour mixture into the butter mixture and mix until the flour is almost incorporated. Stop the mixer, add the milk, then continue to mix until the milk is almost incorporated. Stop the mixer again, add the rest of the flour mixture, and mix on low until just combined. | |
| Step 5 | |
| Spoon 2 tablespoons of the batter into each cavity of two whoopie pie pans (or muffin tins) making sure to spread the batter to the edges OR spread 2 tablespoons of the batter into 24 small circles onto two baking sheets. | |
| Step 6 | |
| Top 12 of the cakes with fresh blueberries, and bake for 11-13 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Allow the cakes to cool in the pan or on the sheet for 8-10 minutes then allow to cool completely on a wire rack. | |
| Step 7 | |
| To assemble pies, spread cakes without blueberries with a bit of the cream cheese filling then sandwich together with the tops with the blueberries. | |
| Step 8 | |
