  3. unfold 1 sheet of puff pastry onto a lightly floured board and cut the sheet into quarters with a sharp knife. place a heaping tablespoon of cheese filling into the middle of each of the 4 squares. pinch the 4 corners together and brush the top of the pastries with beaten egg white. place the pastries on the prepared sheet pan.
  4. repeat with the second sheet of puff pastry and refrigerate the filled danish for 15 minutes.
  5. bake the pastries for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
  6. to make the glaze, combine confectioners’ sugar, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, pumpkin, cinnamon and butter. whisk until smooth. if the glaze is too thin, add more confectioners’ sugar as needed. zigzag the drizzle on the danishes and top with chopped pecans. serve immediately.
