Here are a few tips to help you make the perfect Crescent Cheese Danishes:
- Be sure to use softened cream cheese for the filling. This will make it easier to mix and ensure that it is smooth and creamy.
- Use parchment paper to line your baking sheet. This will prevent the danishes from sticking and make clean-up easier.
- Don’t overfill the crescent rolls with the cream cheese mixture. Too much filling can cause the danishes to leak and become messy.
- When folding the crescent rolls over the filling, make sure to pinch the edges together tightly. This will help to keep the filling inside and prevent it from leaking out during baking.
- Make sure to let the danishes cool for a few minutes before drizzling them with the glaze. This will prevent the glaze from melting and becoming too runny.
With these tips in mind, you should be able to make perfect Crescent Cheese Danishes every time. Enjoy!
