In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and sour cream together. Stir in the package of cake mix; the batter will be lumpy. Spread the batter in the prepared pan. With the back of a spoon, make 15 wells in the batter in 3 rows of 5. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese and milk until fluffy. Spoon a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into each well. Set 1 apricot half, cut side up, on top of each well of cream cheese.

In a small bowl, combine the reserved 1/2 cup cake mix with the butter. Stir in the butter until the mixture is crumbly. Mix in the slivered almonds and sprinkle the mixture evenly over the Danish batter.
