Looking for a quick and easy breakfast to serve in the middle of the Christmas morning chaos? The recipe is quite simple to put together and oh so tasty! You can find all the ingredients at your local Commissary. If the tree isn’t your style, you can shape these danishes into something else! I think I’ll make a wreath or even a star next time!
Ingredients:
- 2 tubes of Crescent Rolls
- 1 block of Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 can Cherry Pie Filling
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Milk
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Open the crescent roll tubes, but don’t separate them. You’ll need 22 slices of crescent rolls. I scored mine with a knife before cutting just to make sure I’d cut enough.
Use a serrated blade and gently cut your slices.
Arrange your rolls into a Christmas tree design. I started at the bottom with six and built my pyramid with one left over for the tree stem.
Mix the cream cheese with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract.
Create little wells in each crescent roll using the back of a spoon.
Add a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture to each well.
Top the cream cheese with a spoonful of the cherry pie filling.
Pop it in the oven and bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
I had about half a can of pie filling and half the cream cheese mixture leftover. I stored them in a ziploc bag for another batch of danishes later!
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes!
Once cooled, drizzle the glaze on top and serve!
Notes:
- If you don’t prefer cherry pie filling, then pick your favorite pie filling!
How pretty is this tree? It’s so festive and perfect for Christmas morning! OMG! These danishes are SO GOOD! They’re creamy, sweet, tart, with the crispy buttery edge of the crescent rolls. Simply delicious! I hope you try this super easy recipe for Christmas morning or even this weekend!
