Easy Cream Cheese Danish Recipe with Canned Crescent Rolls

Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish is an easy recipe to make for breakfast this weekend! Grab a can of refrigerated crescent rolls and let's get baking!

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 18 minutes
Total Time 28 minutes

Ingredients

For the Danish:

  • 1 can of refrigerated crescent rolls.
  • 1 cup of blueberry pie filling
  • 4 ounces cream cheese; softened
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

For the Glaze:

  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp. milk

Instructions

  1. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together until smooth. Set aside while you prepare the crescent rolls.
  2. Open the package of crescent rolls, but do not separate or unroll them. Keep them as a long cylinder or roll. 
  3. Using a serrated knife, slice the long cylinder into 12 equal pieces.
  4. Using your thumb or the back of a spoon, gently indent the middle of each circle so there is a space for the cream cheese to be placed inside.
  5. Place a small spoonful of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each crescent circle. Then place a small spoonful of the blueberry pie filling on top.
  6. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 18 - 20 minutes.
  7. Let cool and drizzle with the glaze.

Notes

Any leftover blueberry pie filling can be frozen for up to 3 months. It also makes a great topping for homemade pancakes or you can use it to make my Homemade Blueberry Sauce.
