**Easy Mini Cheesecake Danish Recipe Cheesecake It Is**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 package of refrigerated crescent roll dough
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/3 cup sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 egg yolk
– 1/4 cup fruit preserves (strawberry or raspberry work well)
– Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth using a hand mixer or a whisk. Add in the sugar, vanilla extract, and egg yolk, and continue to mix until well combined and creamy.
3. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Place the dough triangles onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
4. Spoon a dollop of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each dough triangle, spreading slightly but leaving a border around the edges.
5. Create a well in the center of the cream cheese mixture on each triangle and fill it with a teaspoon of fruit preserves.
6. Fold the corners of the crescent roll dough over the filling, pinching the edges together to secure the danish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and the cream cheese filling is set.
8. Remove from the oven and let the mini cheesecake danishes cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
These Easy Mini Cheesecake Danish pastries are best enjoyed fresh from the oven when the cream cheese filling is still warm and gooey. They make a wonderful addition to any breakfast or gathering, adding a touch of sweetness and elegance to the table.
