Easy Lemon Cheesecake Bars: Tangy lemon pie filling and creamy cream cheese baked in flaky crescent roll layers. Delicious!
Ingredients:
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent roll dough (such as Pillsbury®)
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 (21 ounce) can Lemon Pie Filling
  • 1 medium lemon, zested and juiced
  • 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar, or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, or to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and elegantly line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Unroll both sheets of crescent dough. Place one sheet at the bottom of the pan and save the second sheet for later.
  • In a bowl, blend cream cheese and 1/2 cup white sugar until smooth using an electric mixer. Add lemon pie filling, lemon zest and juice, and vanilla extract. Spread mixture over crescent dough in a baking pan. Top with the second piece of dough, then drizzle with melted butter and sprinkle remaining white sugar on top.
  • Bake until beautifully golden brown in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely for about 30 minutes. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar and slice into 24 bars.
