Peckish Sister from Central, FL

A huge pecan and maple icing covered Danish, what’s not to like? You know that I had to make this for my Gator’s (Univ. of Florida grad’s ) birthday. As you can see from the pictures, it went well except perhaps for the final product, but I was thrilled. The next time I think my dough will have a more even distribution of the butter and work better. The directions were great. I used smaller pecans on the outer rows and a larger pecan variety for the inner rows (to make it look more like a real gator). It is cut into 1 inch pieces. You will want to eat more than a 1” piece, but they are so rich, that much is very satisfying. The pictures show the raw dough, the baked Danish and the maple-glazed Danish.
