Description

Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars are a delicious combination of flaky crescent roll dough, creamy cheesecake filling, and a buttery cinnamon sugar topping. They are easy to make and perfect for any occasion. Serve warm with a drizzle of honey or chilled for a firmer texture.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (for topping)

  • ¼ cup honey (optional for drizzling)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the dish, sealing the seams.
  • In a bowl, mix cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread over the dough.
  • Lay the second can of crescent roll dough on top, sealing the seams.
