Ingredients for this simple and delicious Cheese Danish recipe
- cream cheese- can use dairy or non-dairy cream cheese
- egg yolk- gives the filling a creamy texture and helps the cream cheese from not spreading during baking time
- cane sugar- helps sweeten up the danishes
- vanilla- adds a lovely flavor
- fresh juicy grapes- add both color, texture and flavor
- frozen puff pastry- frozen puff pastry works best for this recipe, simply let them thaw on the counter for 45 minutes before using.
- egg wash- I use the leftover egg whites and brush it over the pastry before baking time to help give the danishes a lovely golden brown color
