Cream Cheese Danish

Cream Cheese Danish
Had a sweet tooth this morning. We made:

Ingredients :

  • 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 large egg, separated
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • Sifted powdered sugar
Directions :
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll 1 can of rolls; press into a lightly greased 9- x 13-inch pan.
  2. Beat egg yolk, cream cheese, and next 3 ingredients at medium speed with an electric beater until blended; spread over dough in pan.
  3. Unroll remaining can of crescent rolls on a sheet of wax paper; press into a 9- x 13-inch rectangle. Place over cream cheese mixture. Whisk egg white; brush over dough. Sprinkle with pecans.
  4. Bake 25 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, and cool in pan on a wire rack. Cut into squares.
Some notes.

If you use a nine inch pie pan, cut into triangles!

I only used one crescent dough roll. That's all I had in the fridge. It's a square of dough and is not the dough cut up for crescents.

I split the dough square in half and I only used half of the listed ingediants! (except for the egg. The egg was small though!).

I also did not have any pecans. I used walnuts. They were great!
