Ingredients

• 2 cups Bisquick baking mix
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.33 cup Whole milk
• 1 large Egg
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.33 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Strawberry jam (or your preferred jam)
• 1 serving Egg wash (1 egg yolk + 1 tablespoon water)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together the Bisquick baking mix, granulated sugar, and cold unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Add the milk and large egg to the mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle approximately 12 inches by 8 inches.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Step 7

Spread a thin layer of strawberry jam (or your preferred jam) on top of the cream cheese filling.

Step 8

Starting from the long edge of the rectangle, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the edges to seal.

Step 9

Cut the log into 8 equal slices and place them flat on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each slice.

Step 10

Brush the tops of the Danishes with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the Danishes are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 13

Optional: Drizzle with glaze made from powdered sugar and a splash of milk for added sweetness before serving.
