    Excellent and easy to make after just waking up in order to serve it fresh out of the oven. My husband loved it as is! Only thing I would do is cut back on the lemon just a little bit. And my husband also requested specifically a glaze on top, which was easy enough.

    I used the danish dough recipe from Emeril on this website -food network(dotcom. It turned out great. I increased the ricotta to 3 tblsp and decreased the lemon zest to 1 lemon too. I found the cheese filling to be just fine on the sweetness scale but I tend to go more savory than sweet in my personal taste. Another great way to make it sweeter is Paula Dean's Danish Glaze. It is 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 3 or 4 tbls of milk, and 1/2 tsp of almond extract. You just drizzle that over the danish after they've cooled for a few minutes. I'm happy with this cheese filling recipe. I like the way it puffed up and grew with the danish dough. All in all, it turned out really fantastic.

    I made my own pastry dough and followed the previous reviewer's recommendation of using 3 T ricotta and the zest of 1 lemon rather than two. Best Danish I ever had in my life. Easy and a huge hit with the family.

    This Danish was simple to make. I do agree with others who say you need to add somethin extra for sweetness. It is not that sweet... The taste is great and working with puff pastry was easy.. I had no problem making this recipe and I will make it again with a few additions:

    I added just a little less than 1T of apricot preserves under the cheese mixture. I'm glad I did because the cheese filling didn't have a whole lot of taste. Maybe the apricot taste over shadowed the cheese filling. I would definitely add more than 1T of the filling to each Danish. With that said, I don't know if it run out on the sides & make a big mess. I did refrigerate the filling made the night before. I used 2 large, not extra large, yolks. I would imagine the extra large yolks would make the filling even runnier...even though it had been refrigerated. I drizzled a lemon confectioners sugar zig zag (thin zig zags & not many of themon top. It looked good, but the lemon taste (which I usually like seemed a little too strong. Maybe I will drizzle chocolate the next time....as someone else suggested.

    These were delectable! My first batch came out great, but I overfilled and slightly overcooked the second batch, but they all tasted wonderful! Very easy recipe. They were a big hit!
