Easy Raspberry Cream Cheese Danish Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the fruit: Using a mortar and pestle, mini food processor or a sealed plastic bag and a mallet or rolling pin, crush the freeze-dried raspberries and strawberries together to a powder; some little pebbles are ok. Set aside 2 tablespoons for the icing and garnish.
• For the dough: Spray the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking dish or 8- or 9-inch round pie pan with cooking spray.
• Unroll the crescent dough out on a sheet of parchment paper. If using dough with perforations, gently pinch the seams to keep them together. Leaving about a 1-inch border on one of the short sides, sprinkle with the remaining fruit mixture, followed by a layer of the granulated sugar and then the brown sugar. Use a box grater or rasp and grate the butter evenly over the top. Starting with the short edge with the filling on it, roll, tucking as you go, towards the short edge with the empty border. Cut into 8 equal rounds and place in the prepared dish. Bake until the tops are golden, 13 to 14 minutes.
• For the icing: While the danishes are baking, in a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon of the reserved fruit mixture, a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon of preferred liquid. The icing should be thick like a glaze, but thin enough to pour. If needed, add more liquid.
• Drizzle the icing over the warm danishes. Transfer to plates and sprinkle with the remaining fruit mixture. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
• Line bottom of baking pan with 1 can of crescent rolls. Pinch all seams together to seal.
• In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese, white sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract and sour cream. Spread filling on top of rolls. Place second can of rolls on top of filling.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
• In a small bowl, stir together confectioners' sugar, milk and butter. After Danish has cooled, drizzle with icing.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar until smooth. Unroll crescent dough and separate into four rectangles; seal perforations. Cut each rectangle in half, making eight squares., Transfer squares to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture diagonally across each square. Top with 1 tablespoon jam. Bring two opposite corners of dough over filling; pinch together firmly to seal., Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Combine milk and remaining confectioners' sugar; drizzle over pastries. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• ROLLS.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Unroll Crescent Rolls, but DO NOT separate into triangle pieces.
• Separate in half, to create to short, wide pieces.
• Pinch perforated areas of dough together on both sides of the two pieces.
• Use rolling pin or side of plastic (acrylic) cup to thin out dough, just a little.
• Spread approximate 1 tablespoon of fruit spread over one piece of dough, ensure even distribution over dough and leave ONE inch of dough free of spread on long edge (to allow with movement of fruit spread during next step). Adjust amount to personal taste, a personal note -- using too much gets quite messy.
• Roll dough towards side free of fruit spread.
• Cut dough roll into 6 even pieces.
• Place on cookie sheet, cooking stone or in cake pan with at least 1" separation.
• Bake.
• GLAZE.
• In small bowl, place confectioner's sugar, milk and vanilla.
• Wisk together.
• Add additional milk or sugar to reach desired consistency.
• After removing rolls from oven, drizzle glaze over rolls (or apply with basting brush).
