Recipe View Using the back of a spoon, create 15 evenly spaced wells in the batter (3 rows of 5). In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and milk until smooth and fluffy. Spoon a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into each well. Place an apricot half, cut-side up, on top of the cream cheese in each well. (15 minutes)

Recipe View To make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and water until smooth. Add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach a drizzling consistency. Drizzle the glaze evenly over the cooled Danish. Slice and serve. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use almond extract in the cream cheese filling.
If you don't have apricot halves, you can use other canned fruits, such as peaches or plums.
The crumble topping can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to use.
For a more intense almond flavor, toast the slivered almonds before adding them to the crumble.
