📋 Ingredients:

For the Danish:

  • 🥯 1 package of King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
  • 🍫 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 🍬 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 🥚 1 large egg
  • 🍋 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 🍋 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 🥄 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 🍯 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 🥄 1 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

📝 Directions:

Prepare the Danish:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Rolls: Separate the King’s Hawaiian rolls and cut a small circle out of the top of each roll, making a well for the cheesecake filling. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy. Add the egg, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and flour. Mix until well combined.
  4. Fill the Rolls: Spoon the cheesecake mixture into the wells of each roll, filling them generously.
  5. Bake: Brush the edges of the rolls with melted butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set and the rolls are golden brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the Danish to cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
