Orange Pecan Cream Cheese Pull-Apart Danish Loaf image

This is one of my most treasured recipes. Flaky refrig biscuits are filled with cream cheese, dredged in butter, rolled sugar, pecans, orange zest. Baked in a bundt pan, the loaf is inverted and drizzled with a glaze. Pull off a danish and slip into bliss.

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 (11 ounce) cans ready-to-bake refrigerated buttermilk flaky biscuits
3 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, pecans, orange zest.
  • Separate each biscuit, (there shoud be 20 biscuts - so you will have 40 layers).
  • Cut cream cheese into 20 pieces.
  • Place one piece of cream cheese on each of 20 biscuit halves.
  • Top with remaining biscuits halves and pinch the edges to seal them.
  • Dip filled biscuits in melted butter.
  • Dredge in the sugar mixture. I do have to make extra mixture sometimes.
  • Stand each biscuit on it's edge in a lightly greased 12-cup bundt pan, spacing evenly, but together.
  • Drizzle with remaining butter and sugar mixture.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Immediately invert onto a wire rack.
  • Combine powdered sugar and orange juice, and drizzle over the danish.
  • Serve immediately.
