Sopapilla Cheesecake

Sopapilla Cheesecake combines layers of crescent roll dough with a creamy, sweetened cream cheese filling, topped with a cinnamon sugar and butter glaze. Baked until golden and slightly crispy on top, the dessert balances soft, creamy textures with a lightly crunchy topping. It is a sweet treat that works well for gatherings or a special dessert, served cooled to let flavors settle.

Ingredients

  • 2 (8 ounce) crescent rolls refrigerated, tubes
  • 2 (8 ounce) package cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
For the Cinnamon Sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350. Unroll and spread 1 can of crescent rolls on the bottom of an un-greased 9x13 pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Spread mixture over the crescent rolls in the pan.
  3. Unroll and spread the remaining crescent rolls over the cream cheese mixture.
  4. In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar. Spread melted butter over the top of the crescent rolls (you probably won't use the whole 1/4 cup) and and sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Optional: Lightly drizzle with honey.
  6. Cool to room temperature and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep the layers fresh.
  • The dessert is best eaten within a few days as it tends to be very popular and doesn't last long.
  • Optionally drizzle honey over the baked cheesecake for added sweetness and a glossy finish before serving.
