I dust the top with powdered sugar in place of cinnamon and sugar. My family loves this treat.

pkg. (8 oz. each) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened

tsp. vanilla

egg, slightly beaten

3/4

Tbsp. ground cinnamon

Enjoy serving MAXWELL HOUSE coffee with this delicious recipe.

Make It

PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Unroll 1 of the cans of crescent dough. Press onto bottom of greased 13x9-inch baking pan to form crust, firmly pressing seams together to seal.

BEAT cream cheese, vanilla, egg and 1/2 cup of the sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Spread onto crust.

UNROLL remaining can of crescent dough onto large sheet of wax paper. Pat out dough to form 13x9-inch rectangle, pressing seams together to seal. Invert over cream cheese mixture to form top crust; discard wax paper.

BAKE 30 to 35 min. or until golden brown. Combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon in small bowl; sprinkle over squares before cutting.

I made this for the first time for my play group and all the moms (and kids, too!) loved it! They all want the recipe and couldn't believe how easy it was when I told them. Thanks!

Glad to see that MY recipe is still a big hit. Even in the hot summer months, it's still a great dessert! Experiment with different variations. Sprinkle with caramel, p-butter or chocolate morsals. Try adding fruit topping to the cream cheese layer. Thanks to all the wonderful reviews. Chasity Drum, Maiden, NC You can find this receipe printed in the summer issue of Kraft Food & Family.

Wow! Sooo good. I have to say that I "messed" up mine. I planned to halve the recipe, but I ended up adding the full amount of sugar, egg and vanilla into my cream cheese. The outcome was still terrific--instead of cream cheesy it is more custard-like, for those who aren't cheesecake fans.

I have prepared this recipe 3 times in 2 weeks! My family loves it. Chill it overnight for the best flavor. I also sprinkled the bottom crust with cinnamon sugar before spreading with the cream cheese mixture.
