Ingredients
– 2 cans crescent rolls (each can 8 ounces / 227g)
– 2 packages cream cheese, softened (each package 8 ounces / 227g)
– 1 ½ cups granulated sugar (divided: 1 cup + ½ cup)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– ¼ cup butter, melted (approximately 57g)
Instructions
1-First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking dish by greasing it lightly to prevent sticking. This step ensures your Sopapilla Cheesecake comes out clean and easy to serve. Next, unroll one can of crescent rolls and press it evenly into the dish bottom, sealing any perforations for a solid base.
2-In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1 cup of the sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Spread this mixture evenly over the bottom dough layer to create that rich filling everyone loves. Then, unroll the second can of crescent rolls, seal the perforations, and place it over the cream cheese layer for the top crust.
3-Pour the melted butter evenly over the top dough layer to help achieve a golden finish. Mix the remaining ½ cup sugar with the ground cinnamon and sprinkle it evenly over the buttered top for that signature crispy crust. Bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown, then cool before cutting and serving as desired.
