2 tubes Pillsbury crescents rolls
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine

In large bowl, soften cream cheese. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract and mix well.

Open 1 tube of crescents and unroll, but do not tear apart. Put them in the bottom of a 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Spread cream cheese mixture over crescents. Put the other roll of crescents on top of cream cheese.

Melt butter and pour over crescents. Mix the 3/4 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle sugar/cinnamon mixture over top and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes.
