Cream Cheese Squares

Cream Cheese Squares

2 (8 oz) can refrigerated crescent roll dough

2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese

1 cup white sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

½ cup margarine (melted)

¼ cup white sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
2. Press one can of the crescent rolls into the bottom of the prepared pan. In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Spread over the crescent layer. Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and lay them on top of the cream cheese layer. Do not press down. Pour the melted margarine over the entire pan. Combine the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over the top.
3. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is crisp and golden.

**I cut the amount of sugar in the first part in half and also added chopped hazelnuts and drizzled honey on the cream cheese mixture before putting on the top layer of dough. I also cut the margarine back to a ¼ cup melted and the sugar for the topping back to 1/8 cup.**
