Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Lightly grease a 9x12-inch baking dish. Unroll one package of crescent roll dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared dish, forming a crust.

03

Step

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, egg yolk, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Gently spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll crust.

05

Step

Unroll the second package of crescent roll dough and carefully lay it over the cream cheese filling. Lightly brush the top with the reserved egg white to promote browning. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, or until the top is puffed up and golden brown. (30 minutes)

07

Step

Remove from the oven and let cool completely before cutting into squares and serving. (30 minutes)

For an extra touch of elegance, dust the cooled cheesecake with confectioners' sugar before serving.
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Feel free to add a layer of your favorite fruit preserves (such as raspberry or strawberry) between the crust and the cream cheese filling for added flavor and color.

    I added a layer of fruit preserves before the top crescent roll layer – delicious!

  • Amanda Metz

    Be careful not to overbake, otherwise the bottom crust can get a little hard.

  • Brice Feest

    This is way better than any store-bought danish I've ever had.

  • Jimmy Bashirian

    My kids request this every weekend now. It's become a tradition!

  • Camren Gusikowski

    I didn't have lemon juice, so I used a bit of orange zest instead. Worked perfectly!

  • Itzel Balistreri

    I found that letting the cream cheese come to room temperature is crucial for a smooth filling.

  • Bulah Miller

    This recipe is a lifesaver! So easy to make and everyone loves it.
