Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers
Light, fluffy, and bursting with a creamy fruit center, these Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers are perfect for breakfast, a mid-morning snack, or dessert!
There are days where I feel like baking everything from scratch, and then there are other times when I want to cheat just a little bit!
I love being in my kitchen and cooking up a storm, but sometimes I need a little help from tried and true favorites. You know, the pre-made pizza dough, frozen fruit, or a boxed cake mix. And since I’m all about easy recipes that taste like you spent all day slaving away, I need to have a few shortcuts every now and then. Agreed?
Now that we got that out of the way, let me introduce you to these Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers. Light, fluffy, and bursting with a creamy fruit center, these turnovers are the perfect treat for breakfast, a mid-morning snack, or dessert.
The center of these Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers contain a mixture of sweetened cream cheese and mixed berries, which pairs perfectly with the flaky, buttery biscuit.
And because I made these cuties using a premade biscuit dough, they were easy to whip up and ready in minutes when I wanted something tasty to munch on. See, I told you shortcuts are worth it every now and then!
And let’s not forget about that drizzle of icing on top!
Made with just two ingredients, it’s the perfect addition to these mouthwatering turnovers, giving it just a touch of extra sweetness. Of course, you could always skip the icing, but I wouldn’t recommend that. These little guys are way better with lots and lots of icing, and I won’t tell if you sneak a spoonful (or three)!
So I know you’re not surprised when I tell you that these Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers take just minutes to assemble, right?
Remember, that’s the name of my game! To start, you’ll cream together softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Gently fold in some frozen, mixed berries and set aside.
Next, you’ll use a can of premade biscuit dough and separate each one. From there, flatten each biscuit to almost double the size. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese biscuit in the center. Take one end of the biscuit and fold it over, creating a triangle. Use a fork to pinch the edges together, if needed. Repeat with the rest of the biscuits and then pop these babies into the oven.
While the Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers are baking, it’s time to prepare the icing. Simply stir together some powdered sugar and milk until well combined. You want to drizzle the turnovers when they’re still warm, which makes this treat oh-so delicious and decadent!
Once these Berry Cream Cheese Turnovers are ready, be prepared to fall in love.
The flaky biscuit and creamy fruit filling are the perfect match for one other. The cream cheese and berries are light and sweet, giving you a burst of delicious flavor. This treat is perfect for breakfast alongside your morning coffee or as a tasty afternoon snack. And these babies are even better reheated in the microwave for a few seconds, restoring the soft and creamy center!

Yay, a dessert for Monday morning! Very happy with these. They look incredible. I’m good with using tried and true most of the time, Gayle! Life is too busy and fun to spend all day in the kitchen!
Thanks, Mir! These are so easy to make and so delicious!
Oh wow! I’ve only ever had apple turnovers, but these look amazing, Gayle. I’m totally with you as far as kitchen hacks go. I do love making pizza dough from scratch, but there are days when I just don’t have the energy to go through the process. I’m glad these turnovers are simple and just as delicious as a from scratch recipe. 😀
I’m glad you can relate, Erin! As simple as these are, they taste like you’ve spent all day in the kitchen! Thanks for the kind words!
I just LOVE berry turnovers, but you’re reminding me that it’s been nearly a year since I made them last! I love how easy these are with the pre-made biscuits. Perfect for a speedy brunch. Or for whipping up when nobody else is around and demolishing like the nobody’s business. 😀
Haha I like your thinking, Sarah! I did devour a few of these before I shared with my husband! 🙂
Gayle I like how delicious these look and you are right, sometimes all we want is easy way to cook something delicious!Pinned!
Thanks so much for the turnover love and pin, Ami!
We all need some shortcuts now and then! The berry cream cheese filling in these looks super yummy, and I love that glaze on top!

Thank you, Kelly!
Homemade turnovers are the best and the berry cream cheese combo sounds just fab!
Thanks, Sues! These are one of my favorites!
Oh I TOTALLY know what you mean! Some days I’m like yeah let’s make all these things from scratch, then some days I’m like well…. I’ll pass. Love these, and love how they look so homemade despite the help from premade dough 🙂
Yes! That’s totally how I feel sometimes. Thanks so much for the turnover love, Sarah!

Completely smitten with how easy these turnovers are! Berries with cream cheese are the perfect filling for these little guys! I want to eat them all.
I think I almost ate every single one, Jen! 🙂 Thanks for the kind words!
These look so good and I bet they taste great. I always share food, but I would have a hard time sharing these with my family. I could easily put away 4 of these with no problem.
Yes! Especially since these double as breakfast and dessert…gives you more of an excuse to eat these cuties! 🙂
Ohhh these are right up my alley! I LOVE any time of pastry with fruit filling and love how these are made easier with pre-made dough! When I want my pastry, I want it NOW and don’t have time to waste with making dough from scratch haha ;). Pinned!

Thanks, Michelle!
These look insanely good. There’s nothing wrong with a shortcut sometimes! (Or most of the time…. Lol).
Haha exactly! Thanks, Ashley!
These are perfect for breakfast, afternoon snack or dessert… heck, why not 3 in a day! Loving these!
Three in a day is totally acceptable, Pamela! Thanks!
I think it’s easy as a blogger to get bogged down into always making everything homemade – but I’m such a sucker for shortcut baking and cooking! It can be such a huge time saver for dinner parties, get-togethers, or for when you’ve got a hankerin’ and in need of your favorite dish asap. I love this recipe, great job!
Thanks so much for the kind words, Heather! I totally agree with you. It’s nice to make things from scratch, but shortcuts are nice every once in a while, too!
Yes! Yes! Yes! There are just some days that call for exactly what you’re offering, here! I love it!
Thank you, Annie!
I feel you 🙂 Me and my cake mix cookie recipe are tight! Short cuts are so nice, especially for pastries like turnovers. The tart berries and smooth cream cheese are pretty hard to beat, pinning these beauties!
Yes! I’ve never attempted pastry dough before, so this is the next best thing! Thanks so much for the turnover love and pin, Mary Frances!
I seriously LOVE any pastry that has cream cheese in it. That is my favorite type of dessert! These looks so so sooo amazing. Can’t wait to try!
Thanks, Annie! I hope you love it if you try it!

Love this recipe, Gayle. I’m pretty sure that 99% of my cooking involves shortcuts, so these are right up my alley!
I was actually just enjoying some fruit turnovers that my girlfriend brought over on Saturday. They are nice for dessert, but I really loved them with coffee for snack. 🙂
Thanks, Blair! This is a great treat for when you want something quick and easy. And I agree, these are perfect alongside a cup of coffee!
Turnovers are such a lovely treat, I haven’t had them in ages! These berry cream cheese ones look delightful! 🙂
Thanks, Stacey!
There’s certainly nothing wrong with using a short cut — sometimes making everything from scratch just takes too long! I love your creative use of the biscuit dough — these turnovers look just delicious, Gayle!
Thank you, Marcie!
YUM! these definitely look like I would eat wayyy to many of them 😉 these look delicious Gayle!
I think I did eat too many of them, Michele! 🙂

These are perfect for when you want an easy, sweet treat! Thanks for the kind words and for stopping by, Gina!
Oh this so reminds me of my childhood! Mom and I used to buy these Pillsbury blueberry turnovers and I loved them. I bet these are a million times better since they’re homemade! I have to make these!
Thanks, Leah! These are so good and so easy to make!
Probably a silly question…….but do you thaw fruits or use frozen
Not a silly question at all, Joanne! I use frozen fruit for these turnovers and don’t thaw. Just take them straight out of the freezer and it turns out perfectly! I hope you love these turnovers if you try them!
