Crescent Ingredients

It only takes a few ingredients and 30 minutes to make this delicious substitute for cheesecake !!

Crescent First Layer

Spray the pan with cooking spray to prevent the crust from sticking.  Open one can of crescents and press it on the bottom and sides of the pan.  This is the bottom crust of the dessert.

Next, with mixer beat the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.  Pour on top of the crescent crust.  Open the other can of crescents and press together and place on top of the filling.  Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Crescent Top Layer

Then prepare the glaze and either spread it all over the top or drizzle it top.

Crescent Finished

I could eat the entire pan by myself !!
