Raspberry Cream Cheese Pastry

This Raspberry Cream Cheese Pastry has a cream cheese filling, topped with a delicious raspberry sauce, all stuffed in crescents, then baked to a golden brown and drizzled with glaze. So delicious!

Have you tried my Blueberry Cream Cheese Pastry yet? This Raspberry Cream Cheese Pastry is exactly like the blueberry pastry and let me tell you… this tastes so scrumptious.

If you love raspberries, you are definitely going to love the way the raspberry sauce and the cream cheese filling go together all stuffed nice and neatly in the crescent ring. Next, it’s baked and then drizzled with an easy glaze that just ties it all together. Incredibly delicious!

How To Make Raspberry Cream Cheese Pastries

Start out by making the raspberry sauce so it has time to cool. Add raspberries to a saucepan along with sugar, lemon juice and water. Once the raspberries have bursts (about 3-4 minutes), mix the remaining water with the cornstarch and add to the raspberries. Cook until the sauce thickens which is about a minute or two. Remove from heat and let cool.

For the cream cheese mixture, beat room temperature cream cheese for about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the remaining ingredients, set aside.

Raspberry Desserts

Unroll crescents, place precut triangles on an ungreased baking sheet and form a shape that resembles the sun with about a 5 inch center. Add both the cream cheese mixture first to the crescent ring, on the thickest part, followed by the raspberry sauce. Next, fold the small tip of the crescents over the filling and tuck under to secure, then bake. Once baked and cooled, drizzle with glaze. That’s it, not hard at all and in no time you too can be enjoying this delicious raspberry dessert.
