Exquisite Cheesecake Crescent Rolls
Ingredients:
- 2 cans (8 oz. each) crescent roll dough
- 16 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9- x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add granulated sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt. Gradually add flour, mixing until fully incorporated.
- Roll out the Dough: Unroll one can of crescent roll dough, keeping it in a rectangular sheet. Press it into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
- Add Filling and Top Layer: Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the dough. Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it on top of the filling.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. Allow to cool completely.
- Finish and Serve: Once cooled, dust the rolls with powdered sugar and cut into desired shapes. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
