I fixed this for company and it was very fast and easy to prepare. More importantly everyone enjoyed it.
Easy Cheese Danish found here.
2 cans ready-to-use refrigerated crescent rolls
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 egg white
Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 13 x 9 inch baking pan.
Lay a pack of crescent rolls in the pan and pinch the openings together.
Beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and egg together until smooth. Spread the mixture over the crescent rolls evenly and then lay the second pack of crescent rolls on top of the cheese mixture and brush with egg white.
Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until the top is golden brown.
You can mix the glaze ingredients after taking the Cheese Danish out of the oven. Cool the Danish for 20 minutes and then pour the glaze over the top.
What did we think of this recipe? Very yummy and it was a big hit with everyone.
The layer of pastry I placed over the top tore a little and I had to do some patchwork. It didn't detract from the look. By the time the icing was drizzled on top it looked perfect.
It cooked faster than I expected, and the top was real brown. No big deal as again the icing on the top covered it all and it still tasted wonderful.
Your favorite fruit would be very nice on the side. I used strawberries, sliced bananas and blueberries.
This is a very easy and delicious breakfast or dessert. It is in the make-again folder.
People had seconds and there were no leftovers.
