For the Cheesecake:
- 16 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar divided use
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls or sheets (8 ounces each)
- ½ cup butter room temperature
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
Open the cans of crescent rolls and lay one sheet in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the layer of crescent rolls.
Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and place it on top of the cream cheese filling.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining ½ cup of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Melt the butter and drizzle it over the top layer of crescent rolls, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
Allow to cool slightly, then drizzle with honey before serving.
- For added flavor, top with crushed nuts before baking.
- Use fresh fruit for a refreshing twist on the filling.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
