Sopapilla Cheesecake

This decadent sopapilla cheesecake recipe features a rich filling, an easy crescent roll crust, and a buttery cinnamon-laced topping that makes it impossible to resist.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray (1 tsp)
  • cream cheese (2 packages (8 ounces each))
  • white sugar (1.75 cups)
  • Mexican vanilla extract (1 tsp)
  • refrigerated crescent rolls (2 cans (8 ounces each))
  • butter (0.5 cup)
  • ground cinnamon (1 tsp)
  • honey (0.25 cup)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a bowl, beat together cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Unroll the crescent roll dough, and use a rolling pin to shape each sheet into a 9x13-inch rectangle.
  4. Press one piece into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  5. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on top of the dough.
  6. Cover with the remaining piece of crescent dough.
  7. In a separate bowl, mash together the remaining sugar, butter, and cinnamon with a fork until combined, then dot the mixture over the crescent dough.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven until the crescent dough has puffed and turned golden brown, about 30 minutes.
  9. Remove from the oven and drizzle with honey. Allow to cool completely in the pan for about 2 hours before cutting into 12 squares.
