Who would have thought that cinnamon sugar, puffy warm bread and cream cheese filling would blend together in a totally divine delicious way? I always think of cheesecake with fruit or chocolates, never did I think of combining it with flaky golden pastry and sweet cinnamon sugar. Mind. Blown. Mouth. Happy.
I love sopapilla and I adore cheesecake so while the combo of the two of them unheard of, it was a must try for me. Using Pillsbury crescent dough made this dessert a snap to throw together and I could hardly wait to get it out of the pan and into my belly. This stuff baking filled my house with cinnamony goodness.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup butter (melted)
- 2 (8oz) packages cream cheese (softened)
- 2 cans Pillsbury crescent rolls
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Cinnamon & sugar (1 tablespoon cinnamon to 4 tablespoons sugar)
- 1 cup sugar
Directions:
- Unroll and spread 1 can crescent rolls on bottom of un-greased 9×13 pan. Press all the seams together.
- Combine softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Spread mixture over crescent rolls.
- Unroll and spread remaining crescent rolls over mixture. I found that rolling it out on a piece of parchment paper and then flipping it over onto the cream cheese mixture worked well.
- Spread melted butter over the top and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.
