Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare a 9 by 13 cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a bowl, combine 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, the juice of 1/2 a lemon, and the zest of 1/2 a lemon; mix until smooth.

In another bowl, combine 2 cups of blueberries, the juice of the remaining half of the lemon, and 2 tablespoons of sugar; mix gently.

In a separate bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sugar, the zest of the other half of the lemon, 1/2 cup of flour, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter; mix until crumbly.

Roll out one sheet of puff pastry to fit the cookie sheet, tucking in about 1/4 to 1/2 inch on each side.

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry.

Pour the blueberry mixture over the cream cheese layer.

Sprinkle the crumble mixture on top of the blueberries.

Place the tart on the preheated cookie sheet and bake for about 30 minutes, until the blueberries are bursting and the bottom is tan or brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
