Apple, Marscapone Cheese and Honey TartletThis past weekend, Justin, Jen and I made our way up to Washington DC for the last weekend of the Cherry Blossom Festival. Jen's birthday is in a week, and for an early celebration she wanted to go to DC. I know you are all anticipating pictures from our trip, and I will put them up tomorrow and give the the details about our trip.
We woke up early Saturday morning and left at 6:30 am. While making our way up to DC, we made a pit stop at Panera Bread and got a little breakfast. I got an Apple and Cheese Danish. While I was eating it, a light bulb went off in my head and I realized that I wanted to try to make my own Danishes, so tonight I made them!
The recipe I used was originally for Apple and Goat Cheese. I substituted the Goat Cheese for Marscapone Cheese. The recipe also called for FROZEN puff pastry [which I did use..] So ashamed. I am big on homemade. I have never used store-bought pie crust, and I never plan on using it either. Next time I make these, I will for sure look up a homemade puff pastry recipe. Although it did save time ;) I can not give the verdict for how they tasted because I am waiting to have one for breakfast tomorrow morning.

*Substitute Goat Cheese for Marscapone Cheese
I agree with you that it doesn't feel homemade when you use the premade stuff - I've done the store made pie crust when I HAD to make pie and a million other things as well - but it was painful and I felt horrible and somewhat guilty about it.
ReplyDeleteThey look yummy though! How did they taste?
