March 2nd--Happy Birthday Martha!! Hope your day is great!

I was thinking about a fun little post by the name of Mama's Kitchen--and every week or so add a recipe I love or a new on I am trying out......but that's way too much work--and commitment for the moment. Sooo I had the most wonderful little goodie at our payday potluck lunch at work. (Thanks Pam!) She got the recipe from Good Things Utah. And I experimented on my family. Everyone loved it!--the only problem was trying to make the decision of what to put on top of it--apple pie filling or berries. My vote was definitely the berries--kind of the tart with the sweet--nice little utopia in the mouth action. So here it is:

Sopapilla Cheesecake

2 pkgs refrigerated Crescent Rolls

1 80z pkg. cream cheese

1 tbl. vanilla

1 1/2 cup sugar (divided)

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 cup butter (I used less)

Topping of your choice

Press 1 pkg. crescent rolls into 9 X 13 pan (or a little larger). Mix cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar and vanilla; spread over rolls. Place 2nd pkg of crescent rolls on top of mixture (pat thin to cover). Melt butter; mix with 3/4 cup sugar and cinnamon then pour over top, and spread to edge. Bake at 350* for 20-25 minutes until brown. Serve with topping.

Topping: fresh fruit, frozen berries thawed, any can of pie filling, ice cream topped with crushed cinnamon toast crunch cereal (or cinnamon & sugar), or just eat plain.

Wow! the possibilities are endless.

Do not cover tightly or it will get soggy. (yah right--like there's gonna be anything left.)

Yum Yum!! Caution--you may ingest more than you intend to. My brother ate 4 pieces very easily until I told him what was in it. Mmmmmm.
