I had bought some Pillsbury crescent rolls in the tubes to make at Thanksgiving time, but didn’t end up making them as my sister-in-law had brought some other rolls as well. So, the other day I went looking for something to make with the unopened rolls of dough. I had seen several times the recipe for the layered cream cheese concoction of cream cheese sandwiched between two layers of the crescent roll dough but instead, I came across several different YouTube videos on making cream cheese Danish instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it a Danish? Is it a pastry? Is it a kolache? Who knows, it is a semblance of all of them I guess and a lot easier than making actually pastry dough the old-fashioned way. Most of the recipes were similar in their approach and to make the easy pastry, Danish, kolache is as follows…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open up the tube of crescent roll but do not unroll the dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slice the tube of dough into six equal round discs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place them on a parchment lined cookie sheet and then using the bottom of a cup or bowl or jar, etc, press down each round til there is a depression in the center of the disc, and they are enlarged a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fill the center of the depression with a cream cheese mixture or with a dollop of fruit filling, or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cream cheese mixture consisted of an 8oz. block of softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, an egg, and either a bit of vanilla or lemon juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brush the Pastry with an egg wash (I didn’t). and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can drizzle on a powdered sugar glaze which was optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a little bit more tinkering I think it could be a pretty good easy go to idea for breakfast for company or just for family. I think next time I would try it with frozen puff pastry instead and maybe try adding the fruit filling along with the cream cheese filling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll give the recipe a B or B+.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
