Description
This is a souped up version of another zaar recipe, that i played around with until i thought it couldn't get any better. When i bring this to social gatherings, people are so estatic in their compliments, that i have to say "aw, shucks, it's easy." hence, the name.
Ingredients
- Crescent Roll Dough
- Cream Cheese
- Sugar
- Vanilla
- Jam
- Butter
- Cinnamon
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350
- Grease one 13×9 inch pan
- Roll out first can of crescent dough into bottom of pan, and slightly up sides
- Beat cream cheese, 1 cup of the sugar, and vanilla together
- Spread over crescent dough
- Microwave jam or preserves for 45 seconds, stirring once after twenty five seconds, to make it slightly liquid
- Spread jam on top of cream cheese, taking care not to mix the two together but keeping them layered
- With your hands, gently stretch second can of crescent dough and place on top of jam layer
- This does not have to cover perfectly, in fact, open seams here and there look quite pretty with the jam peeking through
- Mix melted butter, remaining 3 / 4 cup sugar, and cinnamon together, making sure to incorporate all the butter
- Gently spoon butter mixture over dough, spreading to cover
- Bake, uncovered, for 35 minutes, until top is browned nicely
- Let it cool for fifteen minutes, cut and serve!
- Tastes best warm or room temp, but cold is delicious, too
