1 large egg
For the Topping:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk

Instructions:
Prepare the Rolls:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the bottom layer of the rolls.
Add the Top Layer:
Place the top layer of the rolls over the cheesecake filling.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheesecake filling is set.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Prepare the Topping:
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make a glaze.
Drizzle the glaze over the baked Danish.
