Easy Cheese Danish Recipe

Instructions 🧁👩‍🍳

1. Using a little flour on your hands, flatten each thawed roll into a 3-inch disc and place on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper. 🧻🍞

2. Brush each disc with warm melted butter and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Cover with a clean lint-free dish towel or a sprayed (non-stick spray) plastic wrap.

3. Let rise in a warm spot until double in size. This will vary based on the temperature in your home. Mine took about 50 minutes in the oven with just the light on. ⏳🌡

4. While rolls are rising, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon juice with an electric mixer until smooth and set aside. 🧀🍋

5. Remove rolls from oven and heat oven to 350°F. Uncover the rolls. Using your fingertips, press an indentation in the center of each roll and fill with approximately 1 tablespoon of cream cheese mixture and a teaspoon of lemon curd or raspberry preserves. 🍓🍋

6. Brush the edges of the rolls with the beaten egg and bake for 15–20 minutes or until light golden brown. 🥚🔥

7. Let the danishes cool on the pan for 5 minutes. In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, vanilla, and 4 tablespoons of milk. Add more milk as needed to thin icing as desired (if you get it too thin, add a little more sugar).

8. Drizzle icing over danishes. Serve warm or at room temperature. ❄️🍥
