Ingredients

  • 16 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 3/4 cups sugar divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 packages refrigerated crescent dough sheets 8 ounces each
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup butter room temperature

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
  • In the bowl of a mixer, beat together the cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
  • Place one sheet of crescent dough in the prepared 9x13 pan, pressing it to the edges. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough and top with the remaining sheet of dough.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter. Mix with a fork until combined.
  • Drop small pieces of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top of the dough.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the dough has puffed and turned golden. Remove from the oven and cool before serving.

Notes

These cinnamon sugar bars are delicious with a drizzle of honey over the top.
We prefer to chill these in the fridge for a few hours before serving them, but they can also be served warm or at room temperature.
Store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
