INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pan

- Lay one pack of crescent rolls in the pan and pinch the openings together.
Step 2: Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture
- In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg until you have a smooth mixture.
- Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the layer of crescent rolls.
Step 3: Add the Top Layer of Crescent Rolls
- Lay the second pack of crescent rolls on top of the cream cheese mixture.

Step 4: Bake

Kitchen Notes:
- You can make this Danish with low-fat cream cheese and a sugar substitute like Splenda for a delicious alternative.
- The original recipe calls for a generously filled Danish. If you prefer a lighter filling, halve the ingredients, using 1 package of cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 whole egg, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Adjust the baking time to around 30-35 minutes when using the reduced filling.
