Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 12 bars

Number Of Ingredients 7

Two 8-ounce cans refrigerated crescent rolls
Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 1/3 cups sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
  • Unroll one can of dough and lay it in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Use your fingers to press the dough into the bottom of the dish as evenly as you can, pinching the perforations to seal as needed.
  • Beat together the cream cheese, vanilla, egg and 1 cup of the sugar in a medium bowl with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough. Unroll the second can of dough and lay it on top of the cream cheese layer. Stretch the dough as needed to cover the cream cheese and use your fingers to pinch the perforations to seal. Do not worry if the dough is not perfectly even; that will happen as it bakes. Pour the butter on top of the dough and use a spoon to spread it out evenly. Stir together the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle all over the top of the dough.
  • Bake until the dough is baked through and the cinnamon sugar has formed a crust on top of the dough, about 30 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes before cutting into 12 pieces. The bars can also be cooled completely before cutting and serving.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream. Allow cream cheese and eggs to reach room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth batter.
  • Mix all ingredients until just combined. Overmixing can result in a tough cheesecake.
  • For a crispy crust, press the cookie crumbs firmly into the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath to prevent it from cracking.
  • Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to firm up.
  • For a professional touch, top the cheesecake with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream before serving.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon sugar cheesecake bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. With their creamy cheesecake filling, cinnamon sugar topping, and graham cracker crust, they're sure to be a hit at any gathering. Whether you're looking for a dessert for a special occasion or a simple snack, these cheesecake bars are the perfect choice.
