Simple Strawberry Cheese Danish from Life as a Lofthouse
Ingredients:
1 tube (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
8 teaspoons Strawberry preserves
Glaze:
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons milk
Directions:
Separate dough into four rectangles. Seal perforations. In a small bowl whisk together cream cheese, sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Spread 1/4 of the mixture onto each rectangle. Roll up from long side; pinch edges to seal. Holding one end, loosely coil each.
Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Top each coil with 2 teaspoons preserves. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes, or golden brown.
For glaze, in a bowl, combine powdered sugar, vanilla and milk. Stir until smooth and drizzle over each danish. Makes 4 danishes.
