Tips on How to Make Churro Cheesecake:

For an extra delicious and pretty flair, you can top it with berries that are in season.
Mix the cream cheese and mix just enough to get a fluffy and smooth texture. Over-beating it will make it flop and won't give you enough yield.
If you love thick cheesecakes, you can add another layer using the same steps. Just make sure not to make it too thick since it would take a longer time to bake. Also, when adding another layer of the cheesecake, extend the baking time.
To check if the Churro cheesecake is ready to take out from the oven, insert a toothpick and when it comes out clean, then it is ready to be taken out.

These are the ingredients that you will need:

Crescent dinner rolls
cream cheese
vanilla extract
egg
sugar

Topping

sugar

Preheat oven to 350F and prepare 9x13 inch pan.

In a large bowl add the softened cream cheese. I like to mix this first before I add anything else because I’ve noticed there’s no lumps in the batter:

Next add the vanilla extract, egg, sugar, and mix until it’s well combined:

The cream cheese mixture will have this consistency. Once everything is mixed, set this bowl aside:

In a 9x13 inch pan, take 1 can of the crescent and place it on the bottom of the pan, this will be the crust and make sure there’s no cracks:

Next add the cream cheese batter and spread it evenly on the pan:

Make sure to evenly spread the cream cheese mixture:

To add the top crust layer, I found spreading the crescent on parchment paper first, and then slowly transferring to the cream cheese mixture made it easier and had a cleaner look.

For the topping, I just mixed sugar and cinnamon:
