These easy Cream Cheese Crescent Danishes are perfect. They’re made from Pillsbury Crescent Roll Dough and they have a creamy filling made from cream cheese.

For ease of preparation, it all gets made as one big piece and then cut into squares just before serving.

How To Make Cream Cheese Crescent Danishes

It only takes about 10 minutes to prep this recipe. A whole roll of refrigerated crescent roll dough is unrolled and spread out in the bottom of a baking dish.

Then you spread the cream cheese filling across it and top it with another roll of crescent roll dough. So easy.

Then a mixture of butter, sugar, and cinnamon gets drizzled on top. I like to add some chopped pecans too.

It gets baked for about 30 minutes and then you need to let it cool some before cutting into squares.
