2
Tablespoon

1
teaspoon
lemon juice
1
teaspoon
vanilla extract
¼
teaspoon
table salt
1
sheet
Schar gluten-free puff pastry
defrosted and brought to room temperature
1

1
cup

1
Tablespoon

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt.
Unroll the puff pastry sheet and patch any cracks or re-roll if needed.
Cut the pastry into 6 equal rectangles and place them 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Prick the centers of each pastry with a fork.
Spread a dollop of filling in the center, avoiding the edges.
In a small bowl, beat the egg. Brush the exposed edges with the egg wash.
Bake at 400°F for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly before adding the glaze.
For the glaze, mix the powdered sugar and milk together until smooth. Place the icing in a small zip-top bag. Cut a small corner for piping.
Pipe lines of icing across each danish. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
*Don't forget to poke holes in the center of each pastry or they may completely puff up while baking and your filling will run off.
