Sopapilla Cheesecake

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch glass baking dish.

This is DELICIOUS, but oh so not good for you! Which is usually how it works right? A friend posted this on Facebook this morning so I thought I would share it, as well as keep a record of it for myself. :)

 

I have had this at MOPS, Sunday School, & brunches.

 

Sopapilla Cheesecake
2 cans crescent dinner roll
1 stick butter (melted)
1 tsp cinnamon (use 2)
3 blocks cream cheese (softened)
2 cups sugar
1 tsp vanilla

 

In a large bowl, mix together all 3 pkgs of cream cheese, 1 ½ cups sugar and 1 tsp vanilla.

Set aside – this is the filling.

Roll out one can of crescent dough as a sheet into the bottom of 9 x 13 baking dish. Press together any gaps so that the dough does not come apart at the seams.

Spread filling out evenly on top of the bottom layer of dough.

Roll out second can of crescent roll as a sheet and carefully lay on top of the filling. Again, press together any gaps at the seams so the filling does not ooze out.

Pour 1 stick of melted butter over the top. Spread with pastry brush.

Mix ½ cup sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly across the top.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.

Enjoy warm, cold or reheated in microwave (for few minutes).
