Description

This Cheesecake Crescent Rolls Casserole is a delightful layered dessert featuring creamy sweetened cream cheese sandwiched between buttery crescent roll dough. Topped with a cinnamon sugar and melted butter glaze, the casserole bakes until golden and bubbly, making it a perfect comforting treat to enjoy warm or chilled.

Ingredients

Crescent Rolls

  • 2 cans crescent roll dough

Cream Cheese Filling

  • 2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Topping

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. First Layer of Dough: Press one can of crescent roll dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to create a base layer.
  3. Make and Spread the Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1 cup granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Spread this cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent dough base.
  4. Top Layer of Dough: Place the second can of crescent roll dough over the cream cheese layer, covering it completely.
  5. Add Butter and Cinnamon Sugar: Drizzle the melted unsalted butter evenly over the top dough layer, then sprinkle a mixture of 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon for a sweet, spiced finish.
  6. Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and fully cooked through.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before cutting and serving. This dessert is delicious served warm or chilled according to preference.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for smooth mixing.
  • You can adjust the cinnamon sugar topping based on your desired sweetness and spice level.
  • The casserole can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Serve with fresh fruit or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for added flavor.
  • For a crispier top, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking, watching carefully to avoid burning.
