Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Bars

September 5, 2013 by jessfuel 1 Comment

I’ve seen these delicious little bars all over the interwebs called Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars. Since I’m a gringo, I decided to rename them. Cinnamon + sugar = snickerdoodles. Plus, most of the sopapillas I’ve had have been served with honey or honey butter… not cinnamon. So I don’t know where they got that name anyways.

In any case– the first time I had these bars was way back when, when we were living in Oklahoma. They were so so so so yummy and decadent and I was told they were pretty EASY to make, too. I’m not sure why I haven’t made them until now!

Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Bars

(via Pillsbury)

  • 2 (8 oz) cans crescent rolls (seamless if you can find them)
  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Unroll 1 can dough. Place it in the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 baking pan. Stretch to cover bottom of pan. (If you aren’t using seamless dough, firmly press perforations to seal.)

In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup of the sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in vanilla. Spread over dough in baking dish.
