How To Make easy cheese danish

• 1

  Preheat the oven to 350. Place a sheet of parchment paper on cookie sheet or baking pan.
• 2

  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.
• 3

  Slice the dough into pieces about 1/4 inch thick (as though you're slicing cookie dough). Place the slices on a cookie sheet.
• 4

  Now press the center in to make an indentation for the cream cheese filling.
• 5

  In a large mixing bowl, mix together the cream cheese, regular sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and sour cream.
• 6

  Add a dollop (about 1 tbsp) of the mixture to the indentation you made in each circle of dough.
• 7

  Bake for 15 - 20 minutes.
• 8

  Prepare Icing: Mix together the confectioner's sugar, milk and butter in a small bowl.
• 9

  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."
• 10

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