Provided by evelynathens

Categories     Breads

Time 35m

Yield 8 pastries

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (1 lb) can crushed pineapple, well drained
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
6 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons sugar
1 egg yolk (white will be used for brushing over assembled pastry)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 -2 teaspoon orange juice or 1 -2 teaspoon milk
1 (8 ounce) can crescent roll dough

Steps:

  • To make Pineapple Topping: Empty crushed pineapple into a small saucepan; add orange zest, honey and corn starch and mix well. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until pineapple mixture is very thick. Remove from heat and cool completely. (Can be prepared up to 1 day ahead. Refrigerate until ready to use).
  • To make Cheesecake Filling: Beat all the filling ingredients to combine well.
  • To assemble: Tear the pastry squares along the perforations so that you have 4 rectangles (do NOT separate the rectangles into crescents) and place on baking pan or cookie pan lined with parchment paper or silpat. Cut each rectangle down the middle so you have 8 squares. Divide the cheesecake filling evenly amongst the squares, dolloping it into the centre of each square and flattening it somewhat lengthwise so that filling is stretched down the pastry square, and not just blobbed in the middle. Don't bring it too close to the edges as it may leak out while baking. Over the cheesecake filling, distribute the pineapple topping evenly. Bring opposite corners of pastry in, slightly overlapping one corner over the other, to create Danish. Brush pastries with reserved egg white.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F Bake pastries for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Watch carefully after the first 10 minutes, if the pastry appears to be getting too dark, loosely cover with aluminum foil and continue baking.
  • For Glaze: In a bowl, combine confectioner's sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over top of pastries.
  • Enjoy!

Yield 16 to 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/3 cups all-purpose bleached flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick softened)
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup crushed pineapple or 1 (8-ounce) can, drained
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine flour, sugar, and butter until mixture is crumbly. Spread evenly into a 13 by 9-inch baking pan with raised sides. Press down until an 1/8 of an inch thick and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
  • Mix cream cheese and 1 cup powdered sugar until frosting texture. Add egg, sugar, crushed pineapple and vanilla extract, mix thoroughly. Fold 1/4 cup white chocolate chips and 1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts reserving 1/4 cup of each. Bake for additional 15 to 20 minutes or until batter is set. Remove from oven, melt reserved white chocolate chips and drizzle on top and sprinkle with 1/4 cup reserved chopped macadamia nuts. Let stand for 1 hour and cut into bars.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple has a sweeter and more flavorful taste than canned pineapple. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well before using it.
  • Choose ripe pineapple: Ripe pineapple has a golden yellow color and a sweet smell. Avoid pineapple that is green or has brown spots.
  • Cut the pineapple into bite-sized pieces: This will make it easier to eat and cook the pineapple.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pineapple: This will help prevent the pineapple from becoming bruised or crushed.
  • Don't overcook the pineapple: Overcooked pineapple can become tough and chewy. Cook the pineapple just until it is heated through.
