Cheesecake Crescent Rolls Casserole 🥐🍰

Ingredients:📋

2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent rolls

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup granulated sugar (for topping)

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions:🥣

Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Prepare the Bottom Layer:

Unroll one can of crescent rolls and press the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Make sure to press the seams together to seal the dough completely.

Make the Cheesecake Filling:

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.

Assemble the Casserole:

Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough in the baking dish. Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and carefully place it over the cheesecake layer, pressing the seams together again.

Add the Topping:

Brush the melted butter over the top layer of crescent rolls. In a small bowl, mix together the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Bake:

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the crescent rolls are fully baked. Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving.

Serve:

Slice the Cheesecake Crescent Rolls Casserole into squares and serve warm or at room temperature. Perfect for a decadent breakfast treat or an indulgent dessert!
