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

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.

This was very rich tasting and delicious. I will repeat it again, and I am thinking of adding some berries to the cream cheese mixture before baking next time.

I made this but the recipe I used was titled "Sopapilla Cheesecake". It's a great take on sopapillas and is great to have with Mexican food.

Very easy to taste so good. Tastes good warm or cold -- I think next time I'll sprinkle cinnamon over the cream cheese layer before adding the top layer of dough

OMIGOD!!! These cream cheese squares were the bomb!!! I made them last night and ate them while they were hot. Boy, those squares are the best. I did change the amount of sugar in the mix. I added 2/3 cup sugar in the cream cheese mix but put less on top and it was great. Thanks. I am will make them again.

I used splenda, egg beaters, reduced fat cresent rolls, and fat free cream cheese. The squares were amazing and easy to make.

This recipe is quick and easy to make for company and for the family with coffee in the morning. I modified the recipe by substituting Splenda for sugar and low fat cream cheese. I highly recommend it.

I particularly enjoy baking and almost never do so "semi-homade" recipes, but I thought this one was worth trying. It was enjoyed by all!

I found this recipe to VERY fast to make. Everyone who tried it thought it took longer that it did and were very impressed. This is a great treat to make if you need something quick! We will make this again!!!
