Churro Cheesecake Bars - featured image

These Churro Cheesecake Bars combine creamy cheesecake, buttery crescent rolls, and a crunchy cinnamon-sugar topping for the ultimate dessert mash-up.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cans crescent roll dough
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Roll out one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the baking dish, pinching the seams together to form a solid base.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll layer, ensuring it’s smooth and reaches all edges.
  5. Roll out the second can of crescent roll dough and place it over the cheesecake filling. Pinch seams together gently.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon for the topping. Brush the melted butter evenly over the top crescent roll layer, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the buttered surface.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing into bars. For cleaner cuts, refrigerate for 30 minutes prior to slicing.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps. Pinch crescent roll seams tightly to prevent filling leakage. Cool completely before slicing for cleaner cuts.
