CREAM CHEESE & FRUIT DANISH CASSEROLE

My family loves this breakfast treat and I often make it for holiday mornings for larger groups.  Here's what you need: 

2 cans crescent rolls

2 8oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 egg

1 jar fruit preserves, I usually use Polaner's Seedless Raspberry All Fruit Spread

All you do is:

1-In 9x13 glass casserole dish, spread out dough from 1 can of crescent rolls as your bottom "crust."

2-Mix together softened cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and egg yolk (save egg white for later).

3-Spread cream cheese filling over layer of dough in casserole dish.

4-Heat jar of fruit preserves in microwave (w/o metal lid!) for about 1 minute to thin it.

5-Carefully pour heated fruit preserves over cream cheese filling.

6-Spread remaining can of crescent roll dough over top of the filling/preserves layer.

7-Brush egg white over the top layer of dough.  This will allow top crust to turn golden brown in oven.

8-Bake in oven for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees.  Top should be golden brown.

9-Allow to cool, even refrigerate overnight; then cut into squares and enjoy!
