Cheesecake danishes have always been a favorite of mine. Growing up, we didn’t eat them at home very often, but there always seemed to be a box full of them at the Sunday church service. Whether they were plain cheese, cherry, or apple, I was completely on board with eating these sweet treats for breakfast.
These days, I don’t often have time to make danishes from scratch, so when a craving strikes I turn to these easy Apple Cheesecake Danish Bars! They’re a cinch to make using crescent roll dough, apple pie filling, and a simple cream cheese mixture.
These bars are perfect for any occasion, but especially great when entertaining because there’s enough to serve a whole crowd! A delicious breakfast indulgence, an afternoon treat, or cozy dessert, there’s no wrong time for these danish bars. If you’re whipping up a batch for a smaller group, the recipe can also be cut in half pretty easily and baked in an 8×8 dish instead. Swapping in cherry pie filling also makes for a tasty alternative!
Even the novice baker can pull off this recipe no problem and they are a great way to impress family and friends with a (mostly) homemade treat. Folks are sure to be asking for the recipe to add to their collection. The next time you’re in need of a sweet treat, give these Apple Cheesecake Danish Bars a try. We know you’re going to love them!
