*Ingredients:
°2 boxes of chilled ready-to-use croissants
°2 8-ounce packages of cream cheese
°1 cup of sugar
°1 teaspoon vanilla extract
°1 egg
°1 egg white
+Icing:
°1/2 cup powdered sugar
°2 tablespoons of milk
°1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
*Methods :
Preheat oven 350* degrees & greased 13 * 9 inch baking dish. Place a packet of croissants in the mold and pinch the openings together. Beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla & egg to smooth. Spread the mixture evenly over the croissant rolls, then place the second package of croissant rolls on top of the cheese mixture and brush with egg white. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until the top is golden brown. Top with frosting after cooling for 20 minutes.
Also, the amount of filling required by the original recipe results in a VERY heavily filled Danish. I halved the filling using 1 package cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 whole egg and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and it was still very good. If using the half-fill method, cook for more than 30-35 minutes.
Enjoy !
