Oh, so good! I made these for Sunday School and they were a hit! I followed the recipe exactly and wouldn't change a thing! I'm making it again this weekend for my parents when they come in town.

This is a great danish. The only change I made was to use the new Pillsbury Recipe Creations instead of crescent rolls. They don't have any perforations so it makes it really quick and easy.
