Crescent Cream Cheese Bars

Posted by Picasa
I've been wanting to make these for a long time, but I really needed an occasion to make them since I knew I couldn't trust myself with a whole pan. Lucky for me, a baby shower brunch came up. These are seriously easy, have few ingredients, and taste delish- like a warm cheese danish! Give 'em a shot, you won't be sorry!

CRESCENT CREAM CHEESE BARS
--------------------------

2 tubes crescent rolls
2 - 8 ounce packages cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 cup sugar, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg, separated
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Open and lay 1 tube of crescent rolls in the bottom of a 9 x
13 inch baking pan, making sure to seal the perforations.
Combine cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, egg yolk and vanilla,
mixing thoroughly.

Pour cream cheese mixture over layer of crescent rolls. Open
and layout second tube of crescent rolls on a piece of waxed
paper. Seal all the perforations. Place this layer over the
cream cheese layer, peeling off the waxed paper.

Slightly beat egg white and brush over the top. Combine 1/4
cup sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle on top.

Bake at 350 degrees 25-30 minutes. Cool and store in the
refrigerator.
