12.29.19 I only had one can of crescent dough, so I halved the recipe and baked in a 6-1/2”x8-1/2” glass baking dish. Obviously, the texture will not be like a danish you’d buy at the bakery, but it also doesn’t taste like biscuit dough, and the cheesy filling is spot on delicious! And so darn easy, the perfect choice for a lazy Sunday morning breakfast. Replacing the cheesy filling with lemon curd also might be a nice variation. Thanks for sharing your recipe, enjoyed it.

This is a wonderful, simple recipe with lots of variations. Today I added an extra egg and about a quarter cup of fresh lemon juice with the zest of a very large Meyer lemon from my tree. One end got blueberries sprinkled on the filling. No glaze as we were eating it for breakfast and didn't need the added sweet, but I would have used lemon juice for the glaze liquid had I made it. I have also done it with half the amount of cream cheese and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar before baking, cut into small squares or rectangles, and used as party food. It is a great recipe to make your own.
I used sweet Hawaiian crescent rolls and loved how they turned out.
