Cheese Danish

I love cheese danish.  Don't you?  I made this recipe this morning and wanted to share with all of you!  It's very easy and the family will enjoy every bite!

Cheese Danish made with Crescent Rolls

2 cans ready to use refrigerated crescent rolls
2 packages 8-ounce packages cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg

Topping:

½ cup melted butter

¼ cup sugar

1 tsp. cinnamon (Add a drop of doTERRA Cinnamon Bud oil for a little extra cinnamon taste.)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray a 9x13 baking dish with a non-stick spray.  Lay a roll of crescent rolls in the pan and pinch the openings together.  Press to the edges of the dish.  In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg together until smooth.  Spread the mixture over the crescent rolls. Lay the other tube of crescent rolls on wax paper.  Pinch the openings together and press out.  Lay the dough on top of the cheese mixture.   Mix cinnamon, sugar, and butter and pour the mixture over the top before putting it in the oven.  Bake for 35 minutes until the top is golden brown.  Cool for 20 minutes before cutting.

Another option:

If you prefer glaze instead of the cinnamon topping, you can do this.

Glaze:

1 egg white
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp milk

Brush the egg white on top of the danish.  Bake for 35 minutes until the top is golden brown.  Mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth and creamy.  After the danish has cooled for about 20 minutes, drizzle the glaze over the top.
