  4. Slowly add wet ingredients to dry mixture and mix until everything is well combined and slightly sticky.
  5. Gently fold in thawed frozen blueberries without crushing them.
  6. Gradually add milk until the mixture is moldable yet not too wet.
  7. Roll mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined tray, ensuring they do not touch.
  8. In a small bowl, mix softened cream cheese, a splash of milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add powdered sugar if desired for sweetness.
