Directions
Almond Danish Swirls, This is a Paula Deen recipe (although I’ve heard it was originally a Pillsbury Bake-Off winner years ago) that is absolutely simple and delicious! It’s easy to make variations, too, if you’re not that into almond substitute the almond extract for vanilla, or orange, or butter rum and the almonds in the filling for pecans, or a bit of orange marmalade, or toffee bits, or mini-chocolate chips the variations are endless! I increased and slightly sweetened the filling, and make half again (1 1/2 recipe) the amount of glaze from Paula’s recipe according to our family’s tastes Splenda also works well to sub for the sugar for those low-carbers and diabetics out there The egg wash isn’t mandatory; I usually skip it and just ice the danishes and sprinkle on the nuts , I saw Paula make these and I just pulled them out of the oven Delicious! Next time I will also increase the filling by half as I ran out of filling before using up the 2 cans I also didn’t refridgerate very long because I was in a hurry It was no problem They are excellent!!!, I also got this recipe after watching Paula Deen I made it exactly like the recipe said (1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar instead of 2/3) It was delicious I have also made them the day before and extended the chilling part to overnight It is great to have them ready to pop into the oven in the morning
