Sopapilla Cheesecake Pie Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a bowl, beat together 2 packages of softened cream cheese, 1 cup of white sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Unroll the 2 cans of crescent roll dough. Using a rolling pin, shape each piece into a 9×13 inch rectangle. Press one rectangle into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough in the baking dish. Cover with the remaining rectangle of crescent dough, pressing gently to seal.
- In a separate bowl, stir together 3/4 cup of white sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of room temperature butter until combined. Dot the mixture over the top of the cheesecake layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the crescent dough has puffed and turned a lovely golden brown.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and drizzle with 1/4 cup of honey. Allow to cool completely in the pan before cutting into 12 squares.
