I bring to you the Mocha Latte Bacon Danish!





20 minute prep - 45 minute total - makes 8

Stuff you need:
6 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
*Mouth Waters*
1 can refrigerated big and flaky crescent dinner rolls
1 egg, beaten
6 slices of bacon, chopped
1/2 cup chocolate Hazelnut spread (Nutella or Jif)
2 tsp instant espresso powder
Parchment paper


Process:
Heat oven to 350.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar in a medium bowl until smooth.
Remove dough from can and DO NOT unroll.  Cut into 8 slices.
Place cut side down 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Press each slice into 3-inch round.
Press 1 1/2-inch-wide indentation in center of each round.
Spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons cream cheese mixture into each indentation.
Brush edges with beaten egg.
Bake 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
While the danishes are baking crisp up your bacon in a pan (or just get some ready bacon and heat up in the microwave.)
Let the danishes cool for 10 minutes.
In small microwavable bowl, mix chocolate hazelnut spread and espresso powder.
Microwave on High 30 seconds; stir.
Drizzle over rolls.
Sprinkle with bacon.

Eat!!

The crispy and flaky crust, soft cheese, drizzle of sweet mocha and hint of salty bacon make this insanely delicious for any palette!
