Ingredients
  

2 cans of crescent roll dough

2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese, softened

1 cup of granulated sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1/2 cup of butter, melted

1/2 cup of powdered sugar

1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon of salt

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, stretching it to cover the bottom.

      In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

        Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough in the baking dish.

          Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it on top of the cream cheese filling, stretching to cover completely.

            Drizzle the melted butter over the top layer of dough evenly.

              In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, cinnamon, and salt, then sprinkle this mixture over the melted butter.

                Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

                  Allow it to cool for at least 10-15 minutes before slicing into squares and serving warm.
