Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Unroll each of the crescent rolls and set two sections aside to make the twist strips. Lay out the crescent roll sections in the shape of a candy cane. Use a pizza cutter or a knife to help shape it if needed. In a medium mixing bowl, combine together the cream cheese, powdered sugar and pure vanilla extract, mix well. Spread the cream cheese mixture on top of the crescent roll in the candy cane shape. Spoon the pie filling on top but don't let it get too close to the edges. Cut the pieces you set aside earlier into strips and twist each one then place them on top of your filling to create the stripes of the candy cane, slightly pinch the sides down so each twisted strip stays put. Bake for 12 to 13 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown. Mix together the ingredients for the glaze and drizzle over the warm candy cane. ENJOY!
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure the butter is cold and cut into small pieces before adding it to the flour mixture. This will help create a flaky crust.
- Do not overwork the dough. Overworking will make the crust tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will make it easier to handle and prevent it from sticking to the counter.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into even pieces. This will help ensure that they bake evenly.
- Bake the pastries in a preheated oven. This will help them rise evenly and prevent them from becoming too dry.
- Allow the pastries to cool slightly before filling them. This will help prevent the filling from melting and making the pastries soggy.
- Serve the pastries warm or at room temperature.
Conclusion:
Candy cane danishes are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be filled with a variety of different fillings. If you are looking for a sweet and festive treat, candy cane danishes are the perfect choice.
