- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 Cup Sugar, Divided
- 2 Tbsp Ground Cinnamon

- Sprinkle half of the sugar and cinnamon mixture into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Spread out 1 can of crescent rolls on a flat surface and pinch the seams together. Make sure you create a rectangle about 9x13 inches when you lay the crescent rolls out. When sealed, lay the crescent rolls on the bottom of the baking dish, on top of the sprinkled mixture.
- Spread the cheesecake mixture on top of the crescent rolls.
- Again, spread out 1 can of crescent rolls on a flat surface and pinch the seams together, keeping the rolls in a 9x13 inch rectangle shape. Lay this layer of crescent rolls on top of the cheesecake mixture.
