This Cheese Danish recipe is so easy to make, that yes, even my husband has made this one before!
This is a quick and easy recipe for cheese danish that my family simply adores. We love it best still warm from the oven, but it will keep well for a couple of days if it’s well covered and placed in the refrigerator.
It also reheats well in the microwave for a few seconds. Try this simple recipe for your own family and see if they don’t rave about it too!

Side Notes:
You can make this danish using low fat cream cheese and splenda (sugar substitute) and it’s delicious!
Original recipe calls for makes a VERY heavily filled danish. You can halve the filling using 1 package of cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 whole egg, and a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract – still very good. If you use the half filling method, bake for closer to 30-35 minutes.
