Crescent Rolls are a refrigerator staple in our house, and I look for great ways to use them. Crescent Cheese Danish is definitely a delicious option. This is a quick, easy, yummy breakfast.
Crescent Cheese Danish
Ingredients
- 2 cans Annie's Crescent Rolls
- 8 oz softened cream cheese
- 1/4 cup packed confectioners’ sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- Pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Butter, room temp
- Cinnamon and sugar
Filling
Topping
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375.
- For each can of crescent rolls, make 4 rectangles (two crescents for each). The dough was much easier to work with when I let it come to room temp. Make sure the dough is joined well where the divisions are.
- Mix the filling ingredients well. Place mixture down the middle of each rectangle.
- Bring the long ends over the filling, and pinch together well. They may open during baking, but that's no problem. Pinch the dough together at each end.
- Rub the top of each danish with softened butter, and sprinkle well with cinnamon and sugar.
- Bake about 15 minutes.
- If you want them sweeter, make a milk and confectioners sugar drizzle (to put on when warm from oven) or serve with jam.
