A delightful dessert featuring layers of crescent rolls and a creamy, sweet filling.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the perfect golden crust.
Prepare a large baking dish by lightly greasing it.
Use a non-stick spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared dish, sealing any perforations.
Ensure the dough covers the entire bottom for a sturdy base.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Make sure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll base.
Use a spatula to achieve an even layer.
Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it over the filling, sealing any perforations.
Gently stretch the dough to cover the filling completely.
Melt the butter and brush it over the top layer of dough.
Ensure the butter is evenly distributed for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Keep an eye on the oven to prevent over-browning.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Cooling helps the layers set for easier slicing.
