ROASTED STRAWBERRY DANISH

Steps:

• Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
• Toss the strawberries and 2 tablespoons sugar in a medium-size bowl. Turn the strawberries out onto the prepared sheet pan and turn them all cut side up. Roast until they are soft and juicy, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and return the strawberries to the bowl. Discard the parchment paper and set the sheet pan aside.
• Meanwhile, whisk the flour, remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, and the salt in a medium-size bowl. Add the butter pieces and, with your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture forms a sandy streusel with some chunky pea-size pieces.
• In a separate medium-size bowl, stir together the cream cheese and lemon juice. Place the confectioners' sugar in a sieve and sift it into the cream cheese; stir until smooth. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F.
• Divide the cream cheese mixture among the toasted English muffin halves, spreading it evenly. Make a well in the center of the cream cheese mixture and add some strawberries to it, then sprinkle the streusel around the edges of the cream cheese-topped muffin halves.
• Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake until the streusel becomes golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving. Dust with more confectioners' sugar, if you like.

DANISH STRAWBERRY PUDDING (JORDBæRGRøD)

Steps:

• Wash the strawberries and remove the green flowers. Of course, if you use frozen, it is not necessary.

• When it boils, turn down to low heat, put the lid on, and cook the pudding for 2-3 minutes.

• Allow the pudding to cool and serve it with milk or cream.

SUNNY'S EASY RASPBERRY AND STRAWBERRY DANISHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the fruit: Using a mortar and pestle, mini food processor or a sealed plastic bag and a mallet or rolling pin, crush the freeze-dried raspberries and strawberries together to a powder; some little pebbles are ok. Set aside 2 tablespoons for the icing and garnish.
• For the dough: Spray the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking dish or 8- or 9-inch round pie pan with cooking spray.
• Unroll the crescent dough out on a sheet of parchment paper. If using dough with perforations, gently pinch the seams to keep them together. Leaving about a 1-inch border on one of the short sides, sprinkle with the remaining fruit mixture, followed by a layer of the granulated sugar and then the brown sugar. Use a box grater or rasp and grate the butter evenly over the top. Starting with the short edge with the filling on it, roll, tucking as you go, towards the short edge with the empty border. Cut into 8 equal rounds and place in the prepared dish. Bake until the tops are golden, 13 to 14 minutes.
• For the icing: While the danishes are baking, in a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon of the reserved fruit mixture, a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon of preferred liquid. The icing should be thick like a glaze, but thin enough to pour. If needed, add more liquid.
• Drizzle the icing over the warm danishes. Transfer to plates and sprinkle with the remaining fruit mixture. Serve warm.

STRAWBERRY PUDDING

Steps:

• Clean and rinse berries. If they are large cut in halves or quarters.
• Bring water to a boil over medium heat. Add sugar and strawberries and simmer until berries are tender, about 8 minutes. You will still have lumps of berries. If you want a smooth consitency, break the fruit up by pushing the berries with the back of a spoon on the side of the pan.
• Dissolve cornstach in a little water and add to fruit, stirring constantly. Add vanilla or zest if desired (one or the other not both).
• Bring to rolling boil, stirring constantly. Continue stirring and allow pudding to boil a few minutes. The pudding should no longer be cloudy and regain its shine and gloss.
• Transfer to a bowl and place in the refrigerator until thouroughly cool. Depending on the bowl size and shape, this could take several hours.
• If you are planning to substitute part of the sugar (would not suggest all) with baking Splenda, add the splenda to the bowl just before cooling.
• Optional serving ideas: Top with whipped cream, Cool Whip or vanilla yogurt. Chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa are also nice.
