I got this recipe from my sister in law.  It is super easy.. and so good.

I’ve kicked it up with a Peach Schnapps Sauce… but it is so good just

by it’s self.

I forgot to show the butter in this photo.. and the pictures are not fabulous..

why?  My photographer was gone.. so I took the photos while I worked..

which made them blurry or just not great.

Here’s what you’ll need:

Sopapilla Cheesecake

• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
  
• 2 (8 ounce) tubes refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
• 1 cup + 3 TBLS sugar
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 4TBLS cinnamon (2 go in the cream cheese and 2 go on top of the finished product)

Using a 9 x 13 baking pan, unroll one package of refrigerated crescent rolls and line the bottom of the pan.

Flatten.

Mix together the cream cheese, sugar and extract.

Spread over the crescent rolls.

Unroll the other can of crescent rolls and place on top of cream cheese mixture.

Pour one stick of melted butter or margarine over the top and sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Here’s what you need:

Peach Schnapps Sauce

• 2 or 3 peaches thinly sliced
• 3 TBS butter
• 1/4 cup Peach Schnapps
• 1/2 cup Peach Jelly or Preserves
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 4 TBSP Cinnamon

Melt Butter  in a sauce pan

Add sliced peaches turn heat up to med-high

Add 1/4 cup Peach Schnapps, jelly, water brown sugar and cinnamon to the sauce pan.

Stir and turn heat up.  Let boil until it has thickened. Once it’s the thickness you want take it off the burner and serve over the Sopapilla cheesecake and ice cream.

(see here’s one of the blurry photos I promised )

I used soften cream cheese and “whipped” it  on with my stand mixer.

Mix together the cream cheese, sugar and 2TBS Cinnamon.

It looks like this whipped.. and I think it spreads and tastes better.

Spread over the crescent rolls.

Unroll the other can of crescent rolls and place on top of cream cheese mixture.

Pour one stick of melted butter or margarine over the top

Sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon and sugar on top.   Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

It’s delicious just like this…
