Very yummy! I premade everything and set it in the fridge. Pulled it out to bake a few hours later and it turned out great! The bottom was not soggy like others have said. It tasted great warm and cold! I will definitely make this again. My only note is definitely mix the drizzle topping with a little milk at a time. I used much less than the 3 tbsp it called for.

I used the crescent sheets which made this easier. I only used 1/2 the cream cheese with 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Then I doubled the pie filling (one side cherry, one side blueberry). There was no problem with the bottom crust getting soggy without prebaking it. Will definitely make it again.

I have made this several times for dessert and one of my children actually requests this as her birthday cake. Very easy.

As a lover of sweets and all the ingredients in this, I ended up being grossed out by it. It was weird hot/warm and couldn't stand it cold. The glaze was so disgustingly runny and yucky. Not good. I love danishes, but I really did not like this recipe.

I made this without the cherries because I prefer a cream cheese danish. I served it at a brunch and this morning and have a list of people wanting the recipe. I had people asking to take some home!! This is super easy to make and takes little time. I would recommend this to anyone.

I have to agree about the sogginess of the crust. Baking the bottom for a few minutes, fixed that problem. I do switch up the pie filling and we do love the cherry and blueberry. I've doubled the recipe and used both at the same time. I dabbled a spoon of each here and there and not only was it good, it was pretty, too! Everyone loves this and I will be bringing this to a neighborhood outdoor breakfast.
