If you are lucky enough to have tasted this dessert then you know what I mean when I say your life will be changed after eating one bite of sopapilla cheesecake. It is DIVINE. A few nights ago I made a Mexican casserole for dinner and wanted something "Mexican-ey" for dessert. So I thought about making sopapillas, hoewver I don't own a fryer so that idea was out. The next obvious choice was to search "sopapiilla" on Pinterest and see what popped up. That's when I found the wonderful recipe that is sopapilla cheesecake. I read it over and decided it couldn't hurt to try, sounded pretty good. I'm happy to report it is more than "pretty good". Try it for yourself, you won't regret it.
Ingredients
2 cans Crescent Roll
2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese (softened)
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
Directions
- Using
a 9 x 13 baking pan, unroll one package of Pillsbury® Crescent Recipe
Creations® refrigerated seamless dough and line the bottom of the pan.
- Mix together the cream cheese, sugar and extract.
- Spread over the crescent rolls.
- Unroll the other can of crescent rolls and place on top of cream cheese mixture.
- Pour melted butter or margarine over the top and sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
- Serve warm or chilled. {I prefer mine COLD!}
So I'm not going to lie to y'all. I intended to take pictures of each step of this process. Totally didn't happen. I had a screaming child at my feet and I just forgot to take more pictures. Forgive me?
Obviously there are several steps missing between the last picture and this one. I spread the cream cheese mixture onto the first layer of crescents. Then in order to get the top on just right I rolled it out on parchment paper and then transferred it to the baking dish. Then I poured the melted butter on top and this part isn't pictures but I generously doused with cinnamon sugar.
A very happy ending, indeed.
So go, my friends. Go make this heavenly dessert. It is quick, easy, and your taste buds will thank you for it.

Good grief that looks amazing. I shouldn't have clicked this post. It's everything I can't eat. (I've made some pretty big diet changes lately starting with no dairy...except for the occasional slice of pizza. I can't completely torture myself. ;)
I'll have to write this down and try it...eventually.
Oh I need to try this!
