Ingredients
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls 8 ounces each
- 32 ounces Cream Cheese softened at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon divided
- 1 ¾ cups Granulated Sugar divided
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°Fahrenheit.
- Unroll 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough and press it evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Pinch the seams together so that it forms one full sheet along the bottom of the baking dish.
- With a hand mixer, beat together 32 ounces softened cream cheese, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 2 large eggs, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1½ cups granulated sugar in a medium bowl on medium speed for approximately 2–3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough in the baking dish.
- Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and lay it on top of the cream cheese layer. Stretch the dough to cover the cream cheese and pinch the seams to seal the dough together.
- Pour 4 Tablespoons melted unsalted butter evenly over the top of the dough.
- Whisk together the remaining ¼ cup granulated sugar and remaining 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the dough.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes until the dough is cooked through and puffs up slightly.
- Allow the cheesecake bars to cool completely at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Notes
Make sure that the cream cheese is softened at room temperature so that it mixes smoothly with the other ingredients. I
love serving this cake chilled but it can be served at room temperature or chilled whichever you prefer.
Refrigerate any leftovers, covered, for up to 3-4 days.
