Side Notes:

You can make this danish using low fat cream cheese and splenda (sugar substitute) and it’s delicious!

Original recipe calls for makes a VERY heavily filled danish. You can halve the filling using 1 package of cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 whole egg, and a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract – still very good. If you use the half filling method, bake for closer to 30-35 minutes
