Cream Cheese Danish

Cream Cheese Danish

These cold temps have me in the baking mood. This is not a good thing since I need to be cutting back but I try to share them so I'm not tempted to eat them all myself. ;)

2 tubes crescent rolls

2 - 8 ounce packages cream cheese, softened

1 1/4 cup sugar, divided

1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg, separated

1 teaspoon cinnamon
Open and lay 1 tube of crescent rolls in the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking pan, making sure to seal the perforations. Combine cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, egg yolk and vanilla, mixing thoroughly.

Pour cream cheese mixture over layer of crescent rolls. Open and layout second tube of crescent rolls on a piece of waxed paper. Seal all the perforations. Place this layer over the cream cheese layer, peeling off the waxed paper.

Slightly beat egg white and brush over the top. Combine 1/4 cup sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle on top.

Bake at 350 degrees 25-30 minutes. Cool and store in the refrigerator.

Serve these up with a hot cup of coffee or hot cocoa,yummm yum!
