Ingredients
  

2 cans of refrigerated crescent roll dough

2 (8-ounce) packages of cream cheese, softened

1 cup of granulated sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup of brown sugar

1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

Optional: Honey for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.

      Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and place it in the bottom of the baking dish. Press it down to form an even layer.

        In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

          Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll layer in the baking dish.

            Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and layer it over the cream cheese mixture. Press down gently to remove air pockets.

              In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

                Drizzle the butter mixture over the top layer of crescent roll dough, ensuring an even coating.

                  Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

                    Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

                      Serve warm, optionally drizzled with honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
