Ingredients
Scale
Kings Hawaiian Sweet Bread
- 1 loaf, thickly sliced
Cream Cheese Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
Finishing Touches
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth and creamy. This will be the luscious filling that you can’t resist!
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when it’s time to bake the Danish.
- Assemble the Danish: Cut the Kings Hawaiian bread into thick slices and lay them out flat. Spoon a generous amount of the cream cheese filling onto each piece and then fold or twist them into a Danish shape if desired.
- Bake: Place the assembled Danish on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Add Finishing Touches: Once baked, remove the Danish from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Then, dust with powdered sugar for that final touch of sweetness!
Notes
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Bringing cream cheese and egg to room temperature helps create a smoother filling.
- Don’t Overmix: Mix the filling until just combined to maintain a light and airy texture.
- Watch the Baking Time: Every oven is different, so keep an eye on the Danish to avoid over-baking.
- Use Parchment Paper: Lining the baking sheet with parchment prevents sticking and makes for easy cleanup.
- Let Them Cool: Allowing the Danish to cool helps set the filling and enhances the flavors.
