Description
A delicious and creamy Danish made with King’s Hawaiian Rolls and topped with a pineapple glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package King’s Hawaiian Rolls (12 count), sliced in half horizontally
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons pineapple juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- To taste toasted coconut flakes for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Carefully slice the entire pack of King’s Hawaiian Rolls in half horizontally, keeping all tops and bottoms connected. Place the bottom half in the prepared baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the bottom layer of the Hawaiian Rolls in the baking dish.
- Place the top half of the rolls onto the cheesecake layer, pressing down gently.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set and the tops of the rolls are lightly golden.
- While the Danish bakes, whisk together powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
- Once the Danish is done baking, remove it from the oven and immediately drizzle with the pineapple glaze. If desired, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes over the top for an added tropical flair.
