Easy Cheese Danish with Lemon or Raspberry Filling

These Easy Cheese Danishes come together effortlessly with frozen dinner rolls and a simple cream cheese filling. Topped with tangy lemon curd or sweet raspberry preserves and finished with a vanilla glaze, they make a beautiful addition to any breakfast, brunch, or holiday table. Soft, flaky, and just sweet enough, they’re best enjoyed fresh—though the leftovers rarely last long!
