Cream Cheese Croissant Dessert image

I am not normally a fan of desserts...I'd generally rather have the main course twice. However, you can add cream cheese to just about anything and I would gladly eat it! This was given to me by a friend at work and has become a go-to recipe when I need something for carry-ins. It's good warm, cold, room temperature, by itself or smothered in a light fruit topping. I want to try it with fat free cream cheese and Splenda but haven't yet. If you do, let me know how it turns out!

This recipe was a complete disaster! The croissants were burnt and the cream cheese filling was curdled.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cream cheese filling turned out grainy.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for someone with a sweet tooth.

I'm not a huge fan of cream cheese, but I loved this dessert. The croissants were so flaky and the filling was just the right amount of sweetness.

Absolutely delicious! The cream cheese filling was so smooth and creamy, and the croissants were flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again!
