Cheesecake Danish (Print Version)
Ingredients:
01 -
12-pack King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls.
02 -
1/3 cup Butter, melted.
03 -
2 tbsp Brown Sugar.
04 -
1/2 tbsp Ground Cinnamon.
05 -
1/8 tsp Freshly Grated Nutmeg.
06 -
8 oz Cream Cheese (room temperature).
07 -
3 tbsp Granulated Sugar.
08 -
1 Large Egg, beaten.
Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread 1 tablespoon of melted butter evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
02 -
Place the Hawaiian rolls in the prepared baking dish. Using a knife, cut an 'X' into the top of each roll about 2/3 down, being careful not to cut through the bottom.
03 -
In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix 1/3 cup melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg to create the glaze. Pour the glaze evenly over the rolls.
04 -
In a separate bowl, mix the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and beaten egg until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner cut off.
05 -
Pipe the cream cheese mixture into the center of each roll, filling the 'X' cut made earlier.
06 -
Bake the rolls uncovered for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the cream cheese filling reaches 145°F.
07 -
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best flavor and texture.
