Open 2 rolls of crescent rolls and cut each roll into 8 pieces without pressing down too hard.

Place the pieces on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each piece.

Use a small measuring cup sprayed with cooking spray to create indentations in the center of each piece.

Spoon a small amount of the cream cheese mixture into each indentation and spread it around slightly.

Sprinkle a little brown sugar on top of each Danish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes until done.

Remove from the oven and transfer to a plate.
