EASY RASPBERRY CREAM CHEESE DANISH/COFFEE CAKE/PIE



Easy Raspberry Cream Cheese Danish/Coffee Cake/Pie image

On our way home, I asked my husband to just quickly stop at the store for milk. While there, he started to describe a dessert that he wanted me to make, but his description was, let's just say, lacking. Was it a Danish? Coffee Cake? Pie? Sweet Roll? I didn't know what he was talking about. One hour later, we emerged with a bag...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 loaf frozen sweet dough, thawed but cold (this is usually found near the frozen ready to bake cinnamon rolls.)
1 12 oz. can solo brand raspberry filling (or any flavor you prefer)
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 can pillsbury creamy supreme classic white frosting (or your own glaze)
1/4 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. *Please Note: Prep time does not include defrosting dough or rise times. Night before, place frozen bread loaf in a large ziplock bag with the inside of the bag sprayed with Pam. Place in fridge overnight.
  • 2. Mix softened cream cheese, vanilla and powdered sugar with hand mixer until light and fluffy. Set aside.
  • 3. Roll out bread dough between 2 pieces of lightly sprayed parchment paper to form a 12x16 rectangle. Remove top parchment leaving bottom parchment in place. (By leaving this, I have found it is much easier to get it transferred to the cookie sheet.) Cover loosely with plastic wrap lightly sprayed with Pam and let rest for 10-15 minutes.
  • 4. Remove plastic wrap. On long sides, slice dough every 1 1/2" toward center leaving 5" wide center area uncut. (see photo) Spread raspberry filling in a 4" strip down center of dough leaving 1/2" plain before reaching side cuts. Also leave 1 1/2" at either end plain. Dot with cream cheese mixture.
  • 5. Fold short ends over filling at either end. Then, alternating sides, fold strips over top of dough at slight angle. (see photo) Transfer pastry on parchment paper to cookie sheet. Cover loosely with sprayed plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
  • 6. Remove plastic wrap and bake at 350 degrees for 18-25 minutes. Tent loosely if browning too quickly. (I use a very hot gas oven and oven temps vary, so watch closely.)
  • 7. When done, remove from oven. Brush with a little melted butter. Microwave canned frosting until thinned. Drizzle desired amount over pastry. Sprinkle with chopped nuts, if desired. ( I find that this type of frosting works just as well as homemade powdered sugar glaze, setting up beautifully.)
  • 8. Serving Suggestion: Cut into 1 1/2-2" strips. Drizzle pastry and plate with additional glaze, powdered sugar and/or a little thinned raspberry jam warmed in microwave. (see pics)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 sheets puff pastry sheet
8 ounces cream cheese
6 tablespoons 6 tbsp ricotta cheese
4 tablespoons 4 tbsp sugar
1 teaspoon 1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 cup ½ cup raspberry jam
1 1 Egg + 1 tbsp water (for egg wash)
1 tablespoon Glaze: 1 tbsp milk
1/2 cup ½ cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Combine cream cheese, ricotta, sugar, and lemon juice with a handheld mixer.
  • Place the thawed puff pastry out onto a sheet of floured parchment paper. Roll it out lengthwise about 2 inches.
  • Cut the top corners off and begin cutting strips diagonally down the sides of the pastry. You should end up with about 10 strips on each side. Once you reach the bottom strip, cut off the remaining flaps.
  • Place the filling in the middle third of each puff pastry sheet. Then pipe out an even layer of raspberry jam on top of the filling (1/4 cup per danish ).
  • To make the braid, begin crossing over each strip, alternating between sides. Every time you pull a strip over to the opposite side, gently pinch it down. Before you cross over last strips, fold in the bottom middle flap.
  • Brush both danishes with egg wash. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minute or until golden brown.
  • Make the glaze by combining the milk and powdered sugar. Once the danish is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over i
