Ingredients

  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 (8 oz) cans crescent dinner rolls

Topping

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking pan. Next, beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth and free of lumps.
  • Then, add the vanilla extract, egg, and ½ cup sugar. Mix until everything is smooth and well combined.

Assemble the Churro Cheesecake

  • Open one can of crescent rolls and spread the dough evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan. Press the seams together to close any gaps.
  • Next, pour the cream cheese mixture over the bottom crust. Spread it evenly with a spatula.
  • Roll out the second can of crescent dough on parchment paper and press the seams together. Then, carefully place it over the cream cheese filling.

Bake and Top

  • Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top crust is golden brown and the filling is set. Then, remove the cheesecake from the oven.
  • While the cheesecake cools, combine ½ cup sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir until evenly mixed.
  • Allow the cheesecake to cool completely, about 2 hours. Then, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top.

Chill and Serve

  • Next, refrigerate the cheesecake until chilled for the best texture. Lastly, cut it into 12 slices and serve.
