New holiday recipe: sopapilla cheesecake bars


I made these for our Bible study Christmas party a few weeks ago. These are SO good and so addictive! And they were easy to pull together with items I already had on hand!

Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars

3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
3 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent dinner rolls (may need more to cover)
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup cinnamon sugar (I used a bit more, to ensure coverage)

Using a 9 x 13 baking pan, unroll one package of refrigerated crescent rolls and line the bottom of the pan. Flatten to cover.
Mix together the cream cheese, sugar and extract. Spread over the crescent rolls.
Unroll the other can of crescent rolls and place on top of cream cheese mixture.
Pour one stick of melted butter or margarine over the top and sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
