Ingredients:
1 tube Pillsbury crescent rolls
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 tbsp. all purpose flour
1 c. fresh blackberries or 1 c. blackberry pie filling

Icing:
1/2 c. powdered sugar
2 tbsp. heavy cream
1/8 tsp. vanilla extract
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, flour and vanilla. Set aside. Open crescent roll dough and unroll, leaving crescents in rectangles. On an ungreased baking sheet, lay the crescent roll rectangles together, lining them up width wise. Dough should be almost the entire length of a half sheet pan. Press edges together to even out edges and seal any holes. Cut 1/2 inch diagonal strips up each side of the dough. Carefully spread cream cheese filling down the center of the dough to be about 2-3 inches wide. Top with fresh blackberries or blackberry pie filling. Fold 1/2 inch dough pieces up over filling, alternating sides to get a braided pattern. You may have excess dough once you reach the end of the danish, so fold them in as best as you can. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until filling is set and crescent dough is golden in color. Cool before removing baking sheet.

Once danish has cooled, remove to serving platter. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla and cream to create icing. You may need to add more cream to get the desired consistency. Drizzle icing over danish. Cut into pieces and serve.
