These cream cheese danishes are incredible and so easy. Made with canned biscuits they only a few ingredients and come together quickly.

Ingredients

  • jumbo flaky biscuits with 8 biscuits in can
    1 can
  • cream cheese
    1 package
  • white granulated sugar
    ⅓ c
  • vanilla extract
    1 tsp
  • cherry pie filling

    You can use whatever pie filling you like

    1 can
  • powdered sugar
    ¾ c
  • milk

    more or less until of pouring consistency

    2 tbsp

Directions

  1. 1

    Remove biscuits from can and pull apart to make two biscuits out of each one. You will have 16 flat biscuit pieces. If you are making the muffin type danishes, roll the biscuit pieces out a little to fit in the cup of a standard sized muffin tin that has been lightly sprayed with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    If you are making the flat ones on a baking sheet, place a piece of parchment paper on the sheet and put the flat biscuit pieces on the paper. I kind of crimp the outsides of each flat piece kind of like you would a pie crust to hold the filling. Mix the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with a mixer and add about a tablespoon to each danish, then add pie filling on top. I make 8 of each and use all the cream cheese and pie filling.

  3. 3

    Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes until biscuits are brown and done. Let cool and add glaze below if you like. Makes 16 danishes.

Tips for Perfect Biscuit Danishes

Making these quick breakfast pastries is a breeze, but a few tips can elevate your experience:

  • Flaky Biscuits are Key: Using jumbo flaky biscuits creates a wonderful, light texture that mimics traditional Danish pastry.
  • Softened Cream Cheese: Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth, lump-free filling that's easy to mix and spread.
  • Get Creative with Fillings: Don't limit yourself to cherry! Apple, blueberry, strawberry, or even a mix of berries would be fantastic. You can also skip the fruit for a pure cream cheese Danish experience.
