Cream Cheese Danish

December 28, 2010 | Uncategorized

 

Afternoon! I just got off the elliptical and am contemplating a run as well. I am so unmotivated right now! I thought while I contemplated I would share a recipe with you. I made this for breakfast Christmas morning and we ate it and drank mimosas. it was fabulous! This can be served hot or cold (I like it better hot!)

Cream Cheese Danish

Ingredients:

-2 cans crescent dinner rolls

-1 and 1/2 cups sugar

-1 tsp vanilla flavoring

-2   8 oz packages of cream cheese (I use reduced fat)

-1 egg

-1 cup chopped pecans

-1/2 stick butter

Directions:

preheat oven to 350.

spread one can of dough in greased 9 x 13 baking dish, pressing together seams and pushing to corners of pan.

Mix cream cheese, 1 c sugar, egg, and vanilla until a spreading consistency.

Spread mix over rolls.

Open second can of rolls and put on top like you did the first.

mix rest of sugar and pecans and sprinkle over tops.

Melt and drizzle butter over sugar and pecans.

Bake at 350 for 25 min or until golden brown.

I did pecans on half in case someone didn’t like or want nuts.

Enjoy!

    It’s ironic that Christmas morning was the only time we didn’t do a real brunch… just leftovers/make your own (we were in a hurry to open presents and then be off to the family gatherings!).

    Cream cheese… my friend introduced me to a new dip that uses it. The dip may or may not be life changing. Sigh…

    That looks so good! I make eggnog waffles for b’fast on Christmas morning. This year, however, I made pumpkin waffles b/c I ran out of eggnog. :-O

    I always make overnight french toast for Christmas breakfast. This year it was extra yummy because I used cinnamon swirl bread from Great Harvest. Beyond amazing.

    This sounds freaking amazing. If I had not made the can of crescents tonight, I so would have done this in the morning. I wonder if I could halve the recipe with my one remaining can of crescents…?

    • runningwithsass says

      December 29, 2010 at 9:57 am

      it makes a LOT of danish so you probably could!

    I’ve made a recipe very similar to this and then you cut the whole thing into bars and serve them that way. My office calls them “crack bars” because they are like crack they are so good!

    I love that recipe too! In my hometown they call it “Sopapilla Cheesecake” (what can I say, Oklahoma is sort of close to Texas???). I have never put nuts in it before though- I will have to try it.

    • runningwithsass says

      December 30, 2010 at 3:33 pm

      interesting! I have never heard it called that.

    Ok, it was amazing…addicting, too! Might cut back on the butter and sugar topping next time though…

    • runningwithsass says

      January 3, 2011 at 1:50 pm

      I decided the same thing about the sugar topping. It ended up being too much for us, too!

#BISSELLpartner Messy house era, but make it manag #BISSELLpartner Messy house era, but make it manageable šŸ˜… 
Between dogs, snacks that never make it to a plate, and whatever is happening in my entryway on a daily basis… I needed something that could actually keep up in one go. This one’s been doing the heavy lifting so I’m not doing 12 different cleanups for the same mess. 

Life doesn’t happen in neat, single-surface moments. From pet hair to crumbs to tracked-in grass, real homes have layered messes. The BISSELL PowerClean DualBrushā„¢ is designed to handle it all in one pass without switching tools or going over the same spot twice. 

Promotion: List Price $359.99, on sale for $259.99 ($100 off) from 4/5–5/30. Limited time only, don’t miss it. Link in bio to shop while the deal lasts šŸ‘€

I clipped the 4x fuel points digital coupon on the Kroger app, grabbed a Mastercard gift card at Kroger, and turned a quick errand into a little win-win situation by adding in a handmade colored card and personalized note. She gets to pick exactly what she wants. šŸ’› 

I get 4X fuel points while I’m already out running around (because of course I am). Simple, thoughtful, and honestly kind of perfect. 
Head to your local Kroger, clip the coupon, and grab a Visa or Mastercard gift card, but the offer is only good through May 12! Link is in my bio!

Lately our go-to has been Zbar Protein Snack Bars, especially the new Strawberries ā€˜N Creme flavor that is made with organic whole grain oats, real fruit, and protein to help support growing kids. It’s a snack she loves and I feel good about too. 

It’s a great little reset so she can get right back to doing what she does best, playing her heart out šŸ’•

Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t q Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t quite the same. A little more thinning, my scalp hasn’t felt the same, and I’ve spent more time just throwing it up into a ponytail, and honestly not giving it much thought beyond that. šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

So I started becoming more intentional about actually taking care of my hair and scalp, and it’s such a small shift, but it really does make me feel better.

I’ve been using Mochi Health’s personalized hair support options, which makes it easier to stay consistent instead of guessing what to use. It fits into my routine and finally feels like I’m doing something proactive for myself instead of just hiding it in a bun. Check out the link in my bio for $40 off your first month.

Embarkation day on the Disney Wonder out of San Diego is pure organized chaos in the best way. Bags everywhere, everyone buzzing, and that moment you step onboard and suddenly forget how to function like a normal human.

We’re talking: Where are we even going first? Do we eat or explore or both immediately? Why does this already feel like the best decision ever?

And then the sail a wave party happens and… yeah. You’re gone. Mentally, emotionally, everything. 😭

If you know, you know…embarkation day hits different 🚢✨

Thanks @bestdayevervacay and Disney for hosting us on this magical adventure! Use the šŸ”— in my bio to let then plan a cruise just like mine, down to the last detail!
