Danishes

"Costco's bakery danishes come in cheese, apple, and cherry — all flaky, all sweet, all gone by noon. This recipe does all three fillings with a puff pastry shortcut that makes them shockingly easy."

The Game Plan

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. **Choose your filling:**

  3. Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 squares (8 total). Place on baking sheet.

  4. Score a 1/2-inch border around each square with a knife (don't cut all the way through). Prick the center with a fork.

  5. Spoon 2 tablespoons of filling into the center of each square.

  6. Brush the borders with egg wash.

  7. Bake 16-18 minutes until puffed and deeply golden.

  8. Mix glaze ingredients and drizzle over warm danishes.
