Ingredients
Scale
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even layer.
In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough.
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the cream cheese layer.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. This is important for clean cuts.
Notes
For easier cutting, chill the bars for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
You can add a drizzle of honey or caramel sauce before serving.
