Illegal Cheese Danish



We found this recipe and it had no name...

I only know it should be illegal!!!

Ingredients:
-2 cans Pillsbury butter crescent rolls
-2 (8oz) packages cream cheese (softened)
-1 cup sugar
-1 teaspoon vanilla
-1/4 cup butter (melted)
-Cinnamon & sugar (I used about 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tbs cinnamon)

Instructions:
Unroll and spread 1 can crescent rolls on bottom of un-greased pan. Combine softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Spread mixture over crescent rolls. Unroll and spread remaining crescent rolls over mixture. Spread melted butter over the top and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.

Easy Cheese Danish



Love cheese danish...and especially when you can make them at home and they are fresh and warm just out of the oven!

EASY CHEESE DANISH

Ingredients:

2 cans of crescent rolls
1 8oz package of cream cheese at room temp.
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
3/4 tsp vanilla
1 tsp sour cream

Preheat the oven to 350. Place a sheet of parchment paper on cookie sheet or baking pan.

Open the crescent rolls carefully so as not to tear the dough. Do not unroll...you will need to leave it in it's cylindrical shape. Slice the dough into pieces about 1/4 inch thick (as though you're slicing cookie dough). Place the slices on a cookie sheet. Now press the center in to make an indentation for the cream cheese filling.

In a large mixing bowl, mix together the cream cheese, regular sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and sour cream. Add a dollop of the mixture to the indentation you made in each circle of dough. I find that about a tbsp works well, but you can use as little or as much as you like.

Bake for 15 - 20 minutes. While the danish are baking, you can make a quick royal icing to drizzle over the tops.

Drizzle for top:

1 cup confectioner's sugar
1 tbsp milk
1 tbsp softened butter

Mix together the confectioner's sugar, milk and butter in a small bowl. Use a spoon to drizzle it over the tops of the danish, or you can put it into a small zip-top bag and snip of the corner for an easy "piping bag."

Take the danish out of the oven and allow them to cool for 10-15 minutes before icing

Country Apple Dumplings
2 Lg. Granny Smith Apples~ peeled, sliced
2 (10oz.) Cans Crescent Roll's
1 Stick Butter~ melted
1 1/2 C. Sugar
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 (12oz.) Can Mountain Dew Soda
Preheat oven to 350

Mix together the sugar, melted butter and cinnamon. this will make a thick sugar "paste". Separate the crescent rolls, spread the sugar onto each triangle, along with 2-3 slices Apple. Roll each apple up starting with the smallest end. Pinch end's to seal. After all the crescent's have been filled and rolled, place them in a baking dish seam side down. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over top on the rolls. Next you will pour the can of soda over the top. Place into the oven to bake for 38-45 minutes. I recommend serving them right out of the oven, along side a big scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream.

Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings




Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings

2 cans crescent rolls. I used Pillsbury 8 count cans in original flava. 8)
2 apples. (green).
2 sticks butter. I don't skimp, the recipe says you can use margarine, but what's the point anyway?
2 cups sugar.
2 tsp. cinnamon.
1 can Mountain Dew.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Core and slice apples (I removed the skins as well). Wrap each in a crescent triangle. I basically just tried my best to get every inch of the apple covered by the dough. Line up in a 9x13 inch pan. Melt butter, cinnamon, and sugar together. I just nuked the butter and then stirred in the sugar and cinnamon until it had a pretty smooth, pourable consistency. Pour the Dew around the perimeter of the pan. Bake 45 minutes. Eat warm with a scoop, or 3, of vanilla ice cream.
