I use Pillsbury crescent rolls to make this super easy and quick danish recipe! They're fun to make for brunch or morning get-together and can be filled with whatever filling you like best!
Take your crescent dough and unroll it onto a floured surface. Cut out as many rounds as you can. I was able to get about 15 rounds that measure about 2 ½" in diameter. Lay each round onto a nonstick baking sheet.
Brush each round gently with your egg wash.
Mix your cream cheese filling and add to a piping bag or ziploc bag. Your hole should be about the size of a quarter so the filling comes out nice and thick. Pipe the cheese filling into the center of each round.
Top with a dollop of your canned blueberry filling.
Bake for about 12 minutes at 375°F or until edges are golden brown. Enjoy warm or cooled.Optional* When cooled, sift some powdered sugar over top.
