Sopapilla Cheesecake
Description :
Traditionally a pillow-shaped deep-fried dough, sopapillas are beignet-esque and often topped with cinnamon sugar. Naturally, it follows that sopapilla and cheesecake are a match made in heaven: crispy, sweet dough sandwiching creamy, smooth cheesecake filling is a combination that can't be beat.
Ingredient :
- Cooking spray
- 2 (8-oz.) blocks cream cheese, softened
- 2/3 c. granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 c. sour cream
- 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- Pinch kosher salt
- 2 (8-oz.) tubes refrigerated Crescent rolls
- 1 tbsp. melted butter
- 2 tbsp. cinnamon sugar
Direction :
- Preheat oven to 375°. Grease a 9"-x-13" baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, eggs, sour cream, vanilla, and salt. Using a hand mixer, beat all ingredients together until smooth.
- Press one sheet crescent dough into prepared baking dish, stretching to reach all edges of baking dish. If dough is perforated, pinch all perforations closed.
- Spread cheesecake mixture in an even layer and top with another layer of crescent dough. Brush top with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Bake until crescent is golden and cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Let cool and slice into squares.
