Cream Cheese Phyllo Pockets with Roasted Pineapple

One of our friend Dora Cavallo’s favorite desserts growing up was a pineapple and cream cheese danish that her mom made. She used crescent dough as the crust and filled it with sweetened cream cheese and canned pineapple. She loved this dessert so much and she decided to give it a glow up with our phyllo dough and vanilla roasted pineapple.

The original recipe is delicious, but she loves the crisp texture of Athens Phyllo. The buttery, flaky layers pair so nicely with the cream cheese filling. She also made them in individual servings to ensure the perfect filling to crust ratio. It’s all topped off with a spoonful of fragrant vanilla roasted pineapple. Whether enjoyed as a morning pick-me-up or a delightful dessert, this recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen!
