Time 1h45m

Yield 3 dozen.

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm 2% milk (110° to 115°)
6 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup cold butter, cubed
1-1/2 cups warm half-and-half cream (70° to 80°)
6 large egg yolks, room temperature
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
ICING:
3 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dash salt
4 to 5 tablespoons half-and-half cream

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly. Add yeast mixture, cream and egg yolks; stir until mixture forms a soft dough (dough will be sticky). Refrigerate, covered, overnight., Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 4 portions. Roll each portion into an 18x4-in. rectangle; cut into 4x1-in. strips. , Place 2 strips side by side; twist together. Shape into a ring and pinch ends together. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Repeat with remaining strips. Cover with kitchen towels; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes., Preheat oven to 350°. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make a 1/2-in.-deep indentation in the center of each Danish. Fill each with about 1 tablespoon pie filling. Bake 14-16 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool., For icing, in a bowl, beat confectioners' sugar, butter, vanilla, salt and enough cream to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over Danish.

This recipe is a keeper! It's so versatile and can be made with any type of fruit. I've tried it with cherries, blueberries, and raspberries, and they've all been delicious.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit! It's so easy to make and the results are always delicious. I love that I can make it the night before and just pop it in the oven in the morning.

This was a delicious and easy recipe! I used frozen cherries and it worked out great. The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more sugar to the filling.

I made this recipe for a potluck and it was a hit! Everyone loved the sweet and savory flavors. I used a pre-made crescent roll dough to save time, and it worked out perfectly.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

I made this for my family for breakfast and they loved it! The filling was creamy and sweet, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.
