Directions

• Preheat your oven to 350 F and make sure to have all your ingredients at room temperature. I like to take out the ingredients and place them on the counter at least 30-40 minutes before I am ready to prepare my desserts.
• Place sugar and cream cheese in a bowl, mix until the cream cheese creams and becomes one with the sugar, approximately 2 minutes.
• Break both eggs into a small bowl and while keeping the mixer on low, add in one egg at a time to prevent the cream cheese from becoming lumpy. Continue to mix the egg and sugar mixture until it becomes foamy. At this point it will look a bit watery and that is completely normal.
• Turn off the mixer and add in pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, and cinnamon. If you would like to add in a bit of pumpkin flavoring (liquid form) you totally can but it is not required. Mix all of these ingredients until they incorporate, approximately 2 minutes.
• Now let’s pop open the can of crescent rolls. You can also use the crescent dough sheets as these are not perforated and a bit easier to use. When you open the can, unroll the crescent rolls into a surface and cut the dough in half (spread the dough and looking at it horizontally, cut the dough right down the middle up and down) so you are left with two pieces of dough. (watch the video for reference)
• Prepare your baking pan using non-stick spray, make sure to spray up the corners. Take the cinnamon sugar mixture and sprinkle it throughout the bottom and edges of the pan. Once you have the entire inside of the pan sprinkled, take on piece of dough and press it at the bottom of the pan, use your fingers to spread it to the edges and to close the seams from the crescent cuts.
• Add in the pumpkin cheesecake mixture
• Take the second piece of dough and spread it with your fingers and close the seams, it is easier to do this on a surface as the filling will be a bit jiggly and it will be hard to spread the dough once it is on top of the filling.
• Bake your pumpkin cheesecake pan for 30 minutes.
• Remove the pan once the 30 minutes are up, allow to cool for 10 minutes, and cut into pieces using a plastic disposable knife for cleaner cuts.
• Enjoy.
