Pineapple Cream Cheese Danish

After devouring the Blueberry Cream Cheese Pastry I posted last week, I decided to make this delicious Pineapple Cream Cheese Danish to share with all of you. This pineapple danish recipe is so stinkin’ good, it was devoured as well, just as quickly.

Pineapple Cream Cheese Danish

Fresh pineapple is so delicious and that is what I used with this recipe. I only needed about half of the pineapple. The other half of the pineapple was sliced and enjoyed with some other fruits later in the day.

How To Make This Pineapple Cream Cheese Danish

Start out by separating the pre-cut triangle crescents and placing them on a baking sheet forming a sun burst with about a 5 inch center. Then make the cream cheese filling and add it to the thickest part of the crescents.

Next, cut up a fresh pineapple (can use canned pineapple), and squeeze out the excess juice. Place the pineapple on top of the cream cheese mixture.

Then fold each tip of the crescent up and over the pineapple cream cheese filling and tuck under the thickest part of the crescent forming a ring. Pop in the oven at 375° for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool while making the pineapple glaze.
