🥢Substitutions
- Blueberry pie filling can be used in place of the blueberry preserves.
- Fresh blueberries can be gently folded into the softened cream cheese before spreading it onto the crescent rolls.
- Almond extract can be used in place of vanilla extract.
- Heavy cream is a great replacement for milk when making the icing. The glaze will be a little thicker and will not drizzle as easily as icing made with milk but will have a richer flavor.
🍽 Equipment
🍱Storage
To keep your crescent rolls from drying out, wrap them individually in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container or use a heavy duty freezer bag.
Frozen blueberry and cheese Danish rolls can be defrosted in the refrigerator and should not be frozen for more than 2 to 4 weeks.

📖 Recipe
Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish
Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 16 ounces refrigerated crescent rolls 2 can -8 ounces each
- 8 ounces blueberry preserves
Icing
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoon milk add an additional teaspoon if needed for consistency
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- In a small bowl beat together softened cream cheese, sugar, and lemon juice.
- Separate crescent rolls into 8 rectangles and press the perforations to seal.
- Spread each rectangle of crescent roll dough with 1 heaping tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture.
- Firmly pinch edges and ends to seal. Don't push too hard or the cream cheese filling will pop out!
- On an ungreased cookie sheet, coil each roll into a circle with the seam side down. I made mine first on a cutting board but it would have made much more sense to shape them on the baking sheet instead.
- Tuck the end under.
- Make an indentation in the top and fill with a teaspoon of the preserves.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
Glaze
- While the danishes are baking make the glaze.
- In a small bowl mix the powdered sugar and vanilla adding the milk until the glaze is of drizzling consistency.
- Drizzle over each freshly baked blueberry danish.
