You get the best of two worlds with these Churro Cheesecake Bars. We combine a buttery, flaky crust made from crescent roll dough, a creamy, tangy cheesecake filling, and a sweet cinnamon-sugar topping. This recipe is simple to make and perfect for parties or a satisfying sweet treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package crescent roll dough
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Do not stretch the dough; just press the seams together to form a solid base.
  3. In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon. Sprinkle half of this cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dough base.
  4. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, the egg, and vanilla extract. Beat until the filling is creamy and well combined.
  5. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cinnamon-sugar crust layer in the pan.
  6. Drizzle the melted butter over the top of the cheesecake filling.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the butter layer.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the center is mostly set and the edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  10. Once cool, cut the dessert into squares or bars. Serve them as handheld cheesecake desserts.

Notes

  • For an extra layer of flavor, swirl 1/4 cup of dulce de leche into the cream cheese filling before baking.
  • If you want a crispier crust, you can lightly pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes before adding the cinnamon sugar layer.
  • You can cut these into small cheesecake bites for easy serving at gatherings.
