Number Of Ingredients 7

2 can(s) pillsbury crescent dinner rolls (original)
2 pkg 8 oz. philadelpphia cream cheese (softened)
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla flavoring
1/4 c melted butter
1 c sugar
1/4 c sugar cinnamon mixture
SUGGESTION: MAKE THE RECIPE FOR A SMALL FAMILY OR A AN EXTRA ONE OR TWO GUESTS BY DIVIDING IN HALF - WORKS GREAT AND SERVES FOUR PERFECTLY. IT ALSO SAVES YOU FROM AN OVERDOSE OF CALORIES. FITS PERFECTLY IN AN 8X8 BAKING DISH.

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Mix both pkgs. of cream cheese cream with 1 cup of sugar. Mix until spreadable and add 1 1/2 tsp. of vanilla - mix in.
  • 2. Open 1 can of crescent rolls and line bottom of prepared baking dish keeping rolls connected.
  • 3. Spread , completely covering crescent rolls with cream cheese mixture.
  • 4. Unroll remaining can of rolls, keeping rolls connected, and layer on top of cream cheese layer. Spread melted butter over entire top layer (may use more butter if desired).
  • 5. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon and sugar. May drizzle with honey, if desired.Dish is now ready for oven.
  • 6. Place in pre-heated oven and bake 20--30 minutes. Top should be nice and brown. Pull out of oven and let cool slightly, serve warm.
  • 7. it is so good by itself; however, adding fresh berries with whipped cream just adds an extra kick and allows you to serve additional guests. Hubby put a dip of vanilla ice cream on his - can't vouch for the taste test but he loved it.
