Creating the Irresistible King Hawaiian Cheesecake Danish is a straightforward process. Follow these easy steps to bring this delicious recipe to life:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking dish by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Dough: Open the package of King’s Hawaiian rolls. Without separating the rolls, flatten them gently using a rolling pin or your hands.
3. Make Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth and creamy.
4. Spread Filling: Carefully spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the flattened rolls, leaving about 1/2 inch border around the edges.
5. Roll Up: Starting from one end, carefully roll the dough with the filling into a log shape. Pinch the ends to seal.
6. Shape Danish: Twist the rolled dough into a circular shape and knot it, tucking the ends under slightly. Place it in the prepared baking dish.
7. Prepare Egg Wash: Beat the additional egg and brush it over the top of the Danish to give it a golden finish.
8. Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the Danish is golden brown.
9. Cool: Once baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10-15 minutes in the pan.
10. Dust and Serve: Dust the cooled Danish with powdered sugar. If desired, garnish with fresh fruits on top for added color and flavor.
This step-by-step approach ensures that you create a perfect Irresistible King Hawaiian Cheesecake Danish every time!
