Crescent Cheesecake Bars

Creamy cheesecake meets flaky crescent roll dough in these easy-to-make dessert bars, perfect for gatherings or cozy nights in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tube of crescent roll dough
  • 2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • Optional toppings (fruit, chocolate, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface. Press it into the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, sealing any seams to create a uniform crust.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and large egg using a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough in the baking dish.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
  6. Allow the bars to cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before cutting into squares or rectangles.
  7. Dust with powdered sugar and add any desired toppings before serving.

Notes

Make sure the cream cheese is thoroughly softened for a smooth filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
