My daughter, Jennifer started a whole new dessert adventure with these Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars.
They are sweet and flakey with a buttery cinnamon sugar crunch on top that melts in your mouth. Some people like them warm, but my family prefers them cold.
It takes few ingredients to make so I try to keep plenty of butter, cream cheese and crescent rolls in my fridge to easily be ready to make some when I need a quick dessert.
Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars are the perfect dessert to serve with your next Mexican theme meal.
Here are a few recipes I like to serve them with,
Mexican Rice,
All of which are quick and easy recipes to make.
You are going to want to take these to the next gathering you go to. I really think they would be fabulous to take to a brunch!
I know they are a dessert, but who says you can't eat them for breakfast!
Enjoy!

2 8 ounce package cream cheese
1 1/2 cup sugar

In the bowl of an mixer, cream together cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups sugar, using the paddle wire whisk attachment until creamy and smooth.
Pour over the crescent roll and with a off set spatula spread evenly to the edge.
Unroll the other crescent rolls and place over the cream cheese mixture. Pinching the seams together.
Pour melted butter evenly over crescent roll layer. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over butter.

ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite desserts to make...so easy and everybody loves it. Just wanted to ask where you find crescent rolls by Pepperidge Farm? I've never seen them, and can't even find them on the site! Thanks...Deb
ReplyDeleteDeb ~ I had to check and see if Walmart still has the Pepperidge Farm Crescent Rolls and they do. The are not listed to their website.
