Ingredients
  

1 package (11 oz) King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced

1/4 cup fresh pineapple, diced

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for dusting)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Rolls: Lightly dust a surface with flour and take the King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls out of the package. Gently pull them apart to form a rectangle by placing them side by side to create a uniform pastry.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined and creamy.

        Assemble the Danish: Spread the cheesecake filling evenly across the flattened rolls, leaving a small border around the edges. Top the cream cheese layer with diced strawberries and pineapple.

          Fold and Shape: Fold the edges of the dough slightly over the filling to create a border and carefully pinch it to seal in the filling. Brush the top and edges with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

            Bake: Place the assembled Danish on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

              Cool and Serve: Once baked, let the Danish cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Cut into squares and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

                Enjoy!: Serve warm or at room temperature as a delightful treat for breakfast or dessert.
