Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350ðF (175ðC) and grease a 13x9-inch baking pan.
  2. Unroll the first package of crescent rolls and press the seams together to form a single sheet, then line the bottom of the prepared pan with this dough.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the sugar, vanilla, and egg to the cream cheese and mix until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough lining the bottom of the pan.
  6. Unroll the second package of crescent rolls, press seams together, and lay the dough over the filling.
  7. Pinch the edges of the top and bottom dough layers together to seal the filling inside.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is set.
  9. Allow the dessert to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  10. For the glaze, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and 2 tablespoons milk until smooth.
  11. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled dessert before slicing and serving.
