If you want to make the easiest danish ever make these chocolate bacon danishes that use canned biscuit dough. All you do is flatten out the biscuit and make a little indent in the middle of it for the filling. If you don’t like bacon and chocolate together any type of canned fruit would be good with these such as cherry pie filling or apples. These are the easiest danishes you could possibly make, because the secret is using a can of Pillsbury crescent rolls. No kneading or making your own puff pastry for these. That is however on my bucket list of foods to try making one of these days. The center of the danishes is cream cheese with a little bit of powdered sugar. Bake them in the oven for about 15 minutes and when they come out drizzle some chocolate over the top and top with bacon. I was a bit lazy after yoga class today, and this ended up being my dinner. Don’t tell anyway mmk? J/k. 🙂
