Grandma’s Cheesecake Crescent Delight

A nostalgic, crowd-pleasing dessert that layers creamy cheesecake between buttery crescent rolls, finished with a sweet cinnamon-sugar topping.

Ingredients:

Dough:

• 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough

Cheesecake 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. Preheat & Prepare:
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.

2. First Dough Layer:
   Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the dish. Gently seal the seams with your fingers to create a solid base.

3. Make Cheesecake Filling:
   In a medium mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

4. Spread the Filling:
   Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough layer in the baking dish.

5. Second Dough Layer:
   Unroll the second can of crescent dough and place it carefully over the filling. Seal edges and seams as best as you can.

6. Add Topping:
   Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top.
   In a small bowl, mix the 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon, then sprinkle it generously over the buttered dough.

7. Bake:
   Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbly.

8. Cool & Serve:
   Allow the casserole to cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips & Variations:

• For added flavor, try mixing a bit of lemon zest into the cream cheese filling.

• You can also add a swirl of fruit preserves (like raspberry or strawberry) on top of the cheesecake layer before placing the second dough.

• Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 4 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.

Perfect For:

• Holiday brunches

• Potlucks

• Sunday family desserts

• Breakfast-for-dinner nights!

Enjoy this cozy classic — it’s more than dessert; it’s a memory in every bite.
