Delicious Cherry Danish Pastries

Cherry Danish pastries are a delightful treat that combines flaky pastry, sweet cherry filling, and a drizzling of sweet icing. These pastries are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a special dessert. They are easy to make and sure to impress with their beautiful appearance and delicious taste.

Ingredients:

• 1 package of puff pastry or refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1 can cherry pie filling
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2-3 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). If using puff pastry, roll it out on a lightly floured surface. If using crescent roll dough, unroll and separate it into individual pieces.
2. Shape the Pastries: Cut the dough into squares or circles, depending on your preference. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Add the Filling: Spoon a generous amount of cherry pie filling into the center of each dough piece.
4. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed up.
5. Prepare the Icing: While the pastries are baking, mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
6. Drizzle the Icing: Once the pastries are done baking, let them cool slightly. Drizzle the icing over the warm pastries for a beautiful finish.
7. Serve: Serve the Cherry Danish pastries warm or at room temperature. Enjoy them with a cup of coffee or tea.

Tips:

• Homemade Dough: For a more authentic Danish pastry, you can make your own dough from scratch.
• Variations: Experiment with different fillings like blueberry, apple, or cream cheese.
• Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion

Cherry Danish pastries are a perfect blend of buttery, flaky pastry and sweet, tangy cherry filling. They are simple to make yet look and taste like they came from a bakery. Whether you are serving them for a special occasion or just treating yourself, these pastries are sure to be a hit.
