Cheese danishes are life! Are you with me or what?! There’s something extra special about cheese danishes, especially when they’re coming right out of the oven. That puff pastry dough is still buttery and crunchy. The cheese part gives you the most wonderful creamy layer and the blueberry jam with the fresh berries is just out of this world.

Is this post sponsored?

Technically no. I was not paid to write this post or share this recipe with you. I was sent a few items and coupons for Driscoll’s berries from the feed feed and Driscoll’s in exchange for a post on social media. But since I like to go above and beyond I decided to share the recipe on here as well.

It’s seriously way too good not to share, plus I am truly a huge Driscoll’s fan so I thought it was a match made in heaven 🙂
