# Ingredient List:
→ Dough
01 - 2 cans refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 oz each)
→ Cream cheese filling
02 - 16 oz cream cheese, softened
03 - 1 cup granulated sugar
04 - 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
→ Topping
05 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
06 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
07 - 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
# Directions:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set aside.
02 - Unroll one can of crescent dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan, sealing seams as needed to form a uniform layer.
03 - In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1 cup granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed.
04 - Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough layer, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
05 - Unroll the second can of crescent dough and gently place it over the filling, pressing lightly to cover as completely as possible.
06 - Pour the melted butter evenly over the top layer of dough, using a brush or spoon to distribute it.
07 - Combine 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the buttered surface.
08 - Bake for about 28–32 minutes, until the top is golden and the center is set; rotate pan halfway through if your oven bakes unevenly.
09 - Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 30 minutes before cutting into 12 bars; serve warm or chilled according to preference.
