Delicious Nutella and Cream Cheese mixed together and baked in a flaky Croissant Dough
If you need a quick, easy and delicious dessert this Nutella & Cream Cheese Danish has got you covered! Nutella is mixed with cream cheese and a little bit of powdered sugar then baked in a croissant dough. The croissants make a flaky dough which holds all that creamy nutella goodness in. Drizzle a little bit of nutella on top, sprinkle with powdered sugar and then you’re ready to sink your teeth into a delicious danish! This recipe is simple to make, comes together in a matter of minutes, and it’s perfect for dessert or breakfast.
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) can croissant dough (crescent rolls)
1 (8 ounce) block of cream cheese, softened
2/3 C powdered sugar
3 Tbs. Nutella
some extra Nutella, melted
a little powdered sugar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees; grease a cookie sheet.
Cream together the cream cheese and powdered sugar.
Mix in nutella until combined; set aside.
Unroll croissant dough and arrange it into a circle onto the cookie sheet.
Spread the filling along the inside of the dough.
Take the dough and flip it over the filling; press to seal the edges.
Cut the excess edges off and place them over the rest of the openings.
Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes; until golden brown.
Drizzle on the melted nutella and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Slice, serve and enjoy!
SO lush! I so love Nutella forever! #SITSSharefest
very yummy! made it today for the first time and now it will be a family favorite!
Although I love nutella, I was wondering what other options you have for this?
You could always try it with cream cheese and preserves too 😉
Whoa this recipe came out fantastic! I really enjoyed making it. Found it pretty easy to duplicate in the kitchen, and my family loved it. Thank you! Keep up the great work!
Thank you! I'm so happy you all enjoyed it 🙂 Thanks for the kind comment too.
This looks so delicious! A love the step by step photos. Thanks for posting this great recipe!

Thanks for the recipe. I have this in the oven right now as one of the Nutella inspired Mother's Day desserts to bring to my mom's.
Just about anything with Nutella is thumbs up with me.:) I think i could probably put it on eggs instead of catsup and still find it delicious. 🙂 This recipe sounds so yummy! <3
Omg This was sooo delicious!! I've made this real quick tonight as I had the ingredients on hand already and wanted dessert that wasn't too sweet. These are to die for! Love love LOVE this! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Shelly for the kind comment 🙂 I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed it!
I tried it with both croissant and puff pastry dough. Liked puff pastry much better (although it takes a few more minutes to bake). Also added crushed walnuts to the cream cheese and Nutella mix for a more nuttier filling. Liked it, too. Couldn't figure out how to melt Nutella to the point that it could be drizzled (microwave did not help).
I'm so happy you enjoyed it 🙂
Will be making this Tuesday night for a work lun h on Wednesday. How should it be stored overnight?should it be refrigerated? Is it meant to
Be served warm?
I sent you an email 🙂
hi, I just tried the Danish, they are so delicious. Can you tell me what kind of consistency is the right for the filling and is your dough getting real cross? Anyway, hope you can answer my questions, my family loved the "snack" and my husband took another piece, but he had to leave out the diner :))), cannot wait to try the recipe for friends, will be a total hit!
Hi Martha, I'm so happy to hear that you all enjoyed the danish! The consistency of the filling is a little creamy and fluffy when mixed and then once it baked it became a little airy. I'm not quite sure what you mean about cross…can you explain?

Anything with Nutella or Cream Cheese is usually delicious! But Nutella and Cream Cheese together … Awesome!
Nutella & Cream Cheese…Oh My! I have to try this 🙂
I found this on Facebook, too! I made it and it's way yummy! But I had trouble when it came to melting the Nutella to drizzle on top… what's your secret to getting it to melt? Thanks!
Hi Margo,
I'm so happy you enjoyed it 🙂 I waited to melt my nutella until the very end and I only did it for seconds in the microwave.
Wow, that looks yummy and easy… Now to go get crescent rolls and cream cheese
Just found this on Facebook through Cost Plus World Market. Can't wait to try it. Thank you!!!
Curious to see how this turned out for anyone who has done it and what your thoughts are on the taste? I love Nutella but am just curious about mixing it with cream cheese. I'm not the most adventurous eater but I'm curious about it! Thanks!
We really enjoy it! People on Pinterest have commented that they like it as well. Someone even said they made it using puff pastry!
I am going to try this with puff pastry and low cal cream cheese.
