Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar with ground cinnamon and mix thoroughly to create a fragrant cinnamon sugar mixture.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  3. Unroll the first package of crescent roll dough and spread it evenly across the bottom of the greased baking pan, sealing any perforations for a solid base.
  4. In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread this filling evenly over the dough.
  5. Unroll the second package of crescent roll dough and layer it on top of the cheesecake filling, sealing the edges.
  6. Melt butter and brush it over the top layer of dough, then sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar evenly across the surface.
  7. Bake for 26-30 minutes until the top is golden brown and let cool for 15 minutes before chilling to set.
