Sopapailla Cheesecake

Spread the love

Did you know that I “wrote” on another blog?  I guess I should clarify… because I write on a few different blogs….

But then I have another Recipe blog that I share recipes on Tuesdays called – I Like it on the Table.

So a while back I shared a recipe for Sopapilla Cheesecake.  Quick, Easy and best yet – YUMMO!  And here’s something about me… I generally am not crazy about Cheesecake so that means this is either – Fantastic or Horrid – you know, since I don’t generally like Cheesecake… Take it for what you think!

So I am a member of a woman’s Organization, PEO, and we have monthly meetings.  Every month a different person chooses to be a Host (share their house) and a co-hostess (brings dessert).  One month a member named Cheryl (who also writes a column in our local newspaper) brought this fabulous dish called – Sopapilla Cheesecake.

The minute we walked into her house you almost thought you’d die from the yummy smell and the dish itself
EVEN BETTER!

So I’m going to share this with you and hope that you absolutely LOVE it as much as we (The PEO chapter) do!

In case you can’t read my handwriting :):

Sopapilla Cheese cake
Ingredients:
2 pkg Crescent Rolls
1 cup sugar + 1/2 cup sugar (separated)
1/2 cup butter (1 stick), softened or melted (I prefer softened)
1-2 tsp Cinnamon

Cream 1 cup sugar with the block of cream cheese.  Spread one of the crescent rolls out on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan, pressing all the seams together.  Spread the cream cheese mixture on top of the crescent rolls.  Roll the second crescent roll out and lay on top of the cream cheese mixture.  Spread your butter on top of the top crescent and then top with cinnamon and sugar.

Bake 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven.  Pull it out and let it rest 10 minutes (or be like us and toooooo impatient and eat immediately out of oven, but be warned you may burn your tongue/mouth!)

Happy Friday Friends!

  1. This sounds AMAZING!! Might have to be a superbowl thing this year. Also, I'm now following ALL your blogs. I had no idea Mark had one. Count me as a follower! 🙂

  2. I'm going to have to attempt this, in 'real' cheesecake form. I'm talking 4 blocks of cream cheese. This could be a complete baking flop. But with lots of cinnamon and sugar, I'm guessing it will be just grand. I hope! 🙂
    However, I will also have to make it this way as well. Why not!
    Thanks for sharing.

  3. I gotta get the ingredients this week at the grocery store and make this. It's been a few weeks since I have had it…. NOW it sounds good agian!!

  7. This is Angie from A'lil Country Sugar again. I am here to apologize about the confusion. The author of the Daily Dish post misunderstood my choice. I am so sorry. But come back to Foodie Friends Friday next weekend so I can see what you link up. I love this recipe and will for sure make it for my son.

  8. Sounds so yummy! & I love cinnamon. I can't believe how easy this looks too. Thanks for sharing @ DearCreatives.com weekly linkup! Hope to see you again soon, Theresa
