Instructions

Prepare the Dough: Start by unrolling the crescent roll dough and shaping it into eight triangles, laying them flat on a greased baking sheet to create a beautiful base for your Danish.
-
Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, egg yolk, sugar, and almond extract, blending until smooth and creamy. Place 1 tablespoon of this luscious cream cheese mixture at the center of each dough triangle, then top with a slice of fresh kiwi for a burst of tropical flavor.
-
Form the Danish: Gently pull the points of each triangle towards the center and pinch to seal, ensuring your delicious filling is well contained.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the Danish in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown, filling your kitchen with irresistible aromas. Once done, allow them to cool on a rack.
-
Finish with Jam: While the Danish are cooling, heat the jam until it becomes slightly liquid. Once cooled, top each Danish with another slice of kiwi and brush with the melted jam for that perfect glossy finish.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Kiwi Fruit Danish warm or at room temperature, and watch as everyone savors this delightful treat!
