Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2

Unroll thawed puff pastry dough on a cutting board and slice into 12 evenly sized rectangles.

Step 3

Use a small knife to score a border around each rectangle about ½ inch from the edge, not cutting all the way through dough. Pierce the center of each rectangle with a fork a few times to prevent rising.

Step 4

Transfer the scored rectangles to an un-greased baking sheet, placing them at least 1 inch apart (use two baking sheets if necessary).

Step 5

Mix together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 6

Spoon filling into the center of each rectangle and spread just until the border cut.

Step 7

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until puff pastry is a light golden brown.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix together icing ingredients until smooth.

Step 9

Allow danishes to cool for 10-12 minutes then drizzle icing over the top.
