How to Make Almost Cheese Danish Turnovers
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Gently roll out 4 slices of bread with a rolling pin until each slice is about ⅛ inch thick (slightly thinner than 1/16 inch for better results).
- In a bowl, cream together 4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, 2 ounces (57g) shredded cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon until completely smooth and well combined.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Brush a small amount of melted butter along the edges of each flattened bread slice.
- Spoon about ½ of the cheese mixture onto the center of each bread slice.
- Fold the bread over the filling to create a triangle, ensuring the filling is fully enclosed.
- Firmly pinch the edges of the bread together to create a tight seal, preventing any leakage during baking.
- Arrange the turnovers in a single layer on a small baking sheet. Brush the tops of each turnover with the remaining melted butter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are a beautiful pale golden brown and the filling is heated through.
