Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
¼ cup white sugar
1 extra large egg yolk, at room temperature
½ tablespoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
8 fresh blackberries
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Beat cream cheese and sugar together by hand or with an electric mixer on low speed until creamy but not whipped. Add egg yolk, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt and stir until combined.
  • Unfold puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Roll slightly if needed to achieve a 10-inch square. Cut into quarters. Place a heaping tablespoon of cheese filling into the center of each square. Add 2 blackberries to each square on top of the cheese filling.
  • Beat egg white and water together in a bowl. Brush the edges of each square with egg wash. Bring opposite corners together at the center, being careful to pinch the ends together to ensure a good seal. Repeat with the other corners to guarantee filling doesn't fall out. Repeat this process with remaining squares.
  • Brush the tops of the pastries with more egg wash and place on the prepared baking sheet. Let rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until browned and puffed, about 20 minutes.

Provided by Camille Beckstrand

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 Tablespoon flour
8 ounce tube Pillsbury Crescent rolls (or crescent roll sheet)
21 ounces blackberry pie filling
1 cup fresh blackberries
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 Tablespoons heavy cream
1/8 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and flour. Set aside.
  • Open crescent roll dough and unroll, leaving crescents all together in one large rectangle
  • On an ungreased baking sheet, lay the crescent roll rectangle. The dough should be almost the entire length of a half sheet pan. (If you're not using a crescent roll sheet, be sure to press edges together to even out edges and seal any holes.)
  • Cut 1/2 inch diagonal strips up each side of the dough.
  • Carefully spread cream cheese filling down the center of the dough to be about 2-3 inches wide. Top with blackberry pie filling or fresh blackberries (or both). You may not need to use the whole can, just enough to cover it well.
  • Fold 1/2 inch dough pieces up over filling alternating sides to get a braided pattern. You may have excess dough once you reach the end of the danish, so fold them in as best as you can.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until filling is set and crescent dough is golden in color. Cool before removing from baking sheet.
  • Once danish has cooled, remove to serving platter.
