Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls

This is a quick, easy dessert. I've made my version healthier by using a sugar substitute and low-fat cream cheese, but you can adjust the recipe to suit your wants.


Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls
2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls
2 packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg yolk
1 egg white
cinnamon & sugar mixture

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spread one package of crescent rolls in the bottom of 9 x 13 pan. Beat together cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and egg yolk. Spread evenly on top of crescents. Top with remaining crescent rolls. Brush with egg white. Sprinkle liberally with cinnamon & sugar. Bake 20 to 30 minutes. Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled.
