Time P1DT50m

Yield 2 danish rings, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
4 cups flour
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast or 2 1/4 teaspoons fast rising yeast
3/4 teaspoon salt
16 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 inch pieces and chilled
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening, cut into 1/2 inch pieces and chilled
2 cups sour cream
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine filling ingredients until well mixed; set aside.
  • Prepare the dough by adding flour, sugar, yeast, salt, butter and shortening to the food processor; pulse until mixture resembles a coarse meal; transfer to another bowl.
  • Stir in sour cream so that it forms a dough.
  • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide in half; pat each half into a 7 in x 3 in rectangle.
  • Wrap in plastic and refrigerate 30 minutes; place in freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Remove dough half from freezer and roll out to a 28 in x 5 in rectangle.
  • Cover half the dough (lengthwise) with half the filling, then fold over and pinch edges to seal; shape into an oval by inserting ends into each other and pinching to seal.
  • Transfer to a parchment paper lined baking sheet; cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 4 to 12 hours.
  • Repeat with other half.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; brush each danish with the egg and bake until golden brown, about 40 to 50 minutes, rotating pans halfway through baking.
  • Cool 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients and mix well.
  • Drizzle glaze over danish and let set for 10 minutes.
  • Serve warm or room temperature.
  • Store in an airtight container up to 2 days.

I've made this kringle several times now and it's always a hit. The dough is easy to work with and the filling is delicious. I've also tried adding different fillings, such as raspberry jam and chocolate chips, and they've all been great.
