Easy Cheese Danishes-so simple to make and so delicious!
Not wanting her to be completely left out. I decided I needed to make something similar for her. But I didn’t want to make a whole danish. Honestly, I love my sweets but I try to moderate how much I have in the house at one time.
It was so simple. Just make her plain cheese danishes.
These sweet little things took maybe 5 minutes to put together and get in the oven. My secret trick-use the bottom of a shot glass, lightly floured to make the indentation for the cheese mixture. I used a small scoop for the cheese mixture and done!

Stir together cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla. Set aside.
Remove crescent dough from packaging. Do not unroll. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 sections, about 3/4 inch thick. Place dough sections on a parchment lined or lightly greased baking sheet. Create an indentation in the center of each dough section for your cream cheese mixture. I use the bottom of a shot glass, lightly floured.
Place 1 rounded tablespoon of cream cheese mixture onto each dough section. A small cookie scoop works perfectly.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 14-17 minutes, until dough is golden brown.
While danishes are baking, create your icing. Combine powdered sugar and milk until completely smooth. Drizzle over warm danishes.

You can make this using the seamless dough, I have a hard time finding it around here so I just buy the rolls. For this recipe there is no difference in the outcome since you don’t unroll the dough.
How tasty looking are these little beauties……and so simple to make!
With these cheese danishes could you add fruit too, to make it a cherry cheese or blueberry cheese Danish?
These look so good! And you can’t beat how easy they are to put together. Thanks for sharing!
I make these using the Grands biscuits. They’re really good with pie filling too!
I'm Joan and I live in a small town in Georgia where kids still say ‘yes ma’am and ‘no sir’ and the food is mostly cooked from scratch. I’m lucky enough to be mom to CJ, Cassie and Grace which means that, in addition to cooking, I also work as a taxi service, homework checker, laundry doer, housecleaner and gardener. Although, to be honest I try to avoid those last two as much as possible.
