Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Press the crescent roll dough into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, 1/2 cup sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well.
  6. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cream cheese is set.
  8. Let the bars cool completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add a touch of almond extract to the cream cheese filling.
  • Ensure your cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
  • These bars are best served chilled or at room temperature.
