Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans (8 oz each) Crescent Roll Dough
- 16 oz (2 packages) Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 cup Sugar, divided
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1/4 cup Butter, unsalted, melted
- 2 tbsp Ground Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, stretching it to cover the entire surface.
- Mix the sugar with the cinnamon. Sprinkle half the amount over the dough.
- Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
- In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, the vanilla extract and a tiny pinch of sea salt until smooth and creamy.
- Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough layer in the baking dish.
- Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it over the cream cheese mixture. Gently stretch it to cover the filling. Cut stripes of the remaining dough if needed to cover the entire surface of the pan.
- Brush the top layer of dough with the melted butter, then evenly sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture over the entire surface.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the center is set.
- Let the bars cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before cutting them into squares. Serve them warm or at room temperature and drizzle with your favorite syrup if desired.
