Best 5 Red Jam And Cheese Danish Recipes

RED-JAM AND CHEESE DANISH

Steps:

• Danish: Heat milk, sugar, butter, and salt in a saucepan over medium, stirring occasionally, just until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved; transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Let stand until warm to the touch (110 degrees), 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in yeast, then eggs and vanilla. Add flour and stir until a sticky dough forms. Knead on a floured surface, dusting hands and surface with flour as needed, until smooth and elastic but still slightly tacky, 2 to 3 minutes. Form into a ball. Transfer to a large buttered bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Punch down dough. Press evenly into bottom of a buttered 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Press dough up edges of dish to make a 1/2-inch-high, 1/2-inch-wide border. Working lengthwise down center of dish, pinch up dough to create a 1/2-inch-high, 1/2-inch-wide wall, forming two separate channels of dough. Cover; let rise until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes.
• Filling: Meanwhile, beat cream cheese in a bowl on medium-high speed until smooth. Add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add flour, egg yolk, zest and juice, and salt, beating until combined.
• Crumble topping: Combine flour, cornmeal, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Massage butter into flour mixture with your fingers until mixture clumps together and no dry flour remains. Press into bottom of bowl and refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Divide filling evenly between two channels of dough. Spread to edges with a spatula, then spread jam over cheese mixture. Brush border and center wall with egg white. Break topping into bite-size pieces; sprinkle over top. Bake until puffed and golden and topping is crisp, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely in baking dish on wire rack, about 1 hour.
• Glaze: Whisk together sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle evenly over top of Danish. Let stand until glaze is set, about 10 minutes.
