Servings          
Original recipe makes Servings
8 ounceCream cheese; softened
1/3 cupPowdered sugar
1 Egg
1/4 cupPecans; chopped
2 packageRefrigerated crescent rolls
2 Granny Smith apples; peeled, cored and sliced
1 tablespoonSugar
1/2 teaspoonCinnamon
1 tablespoonMaple Syrup

Apple Danish Braid Preparation

Preheat oven to 375?F.

In a bowl, combine cream cheese and powdered sugar until well blended. Add egg, mixing until smooth.

Unroll one package of crescent dough - do not separate. Arrange longest sides of dough across width of 12"x15" rectangle baking stone. Repeat with remaining package of dough. Roll dough to seal perforations.

On longest sides of baking stone, cut dough into strips 1-1/2 inches apart, 3 inches deep using pizza cutter (there will be 6 inches in the center for the filling). Spread half of cream cheese mixture evenly over middle of dough. Cut apple slices crosswise in half, evenly arrange over cream cheese mixture.

Combine sugar and cinnamon, sprinkle over apples. Scoop remaining cream cheese mixture over spples; sprinkle with pecans. To braid, lift strips of dough across mixture to meet in center, twisting each strip one turn. Continue alternating strips to form a braid. Tuck ends under to seal at end of braid. Bake 25-28 minutes or until deep golden brown. Remove from oven; drizzle with syrup. Cut and serve.
