Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 12-pack KING’S HAWAIIANยฎ original sweet rolls
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (omit or reduce if not a fan)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar

Instructions:

1๏ธโƒฃ Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375ยฐF. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and spread it evenly in a 9ร—13-inch baking dish, sheet pan, or another pan with sides.

2๏ธโƒฃ Prepare the Rolls: Place the rolls over the butter in the prepared dish. Cut an X into each roll about 2/3 down, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom of the rolls.

3๏ธโƒฃ Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture: In a measuring cup, stir together the 1/3 cup melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour this mixture evenly over the rolls, making sure to coat them well.

4๏ธโƒฃ Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a bowl, stir the room temperature cream cheese until smooth. Add the granulated sugar and stir until smooth. Stir in the beaten egg until fully incorporated.

5๏ธโƒฃ Fill the Rolls: Use a piping bag with a large tip to pipe the cream cheese mixture into the rolls. If you donโ€™t have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the end snipped off or spoon the mixture into the rolls. It may take a little patience, but itโ€™s worth it!

6๏ธโƒฃ Bake: Bake the rolls uncovered at 375ยฐF for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are cooked through and golden brown.

7๏ธโƒฃ Cool and Serve: Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Theyโ€™ll keep for 3 to 4 days.

๐ŸŒบ Enjoy:

These King’s Hawaiian Cheesecake Danishes are a sweet, indulgent treat that combines the soft, fluffy texture of Hawaiian rolls with a rich cheesecake filling and a cinnamon-sugar topping. Perfect for a breakfast, dessert, or as a special treat for guests!
