Crescent roll cheesecake is one of the easiest types of cheesecake to make! The sweet cream cheese filling is delicious with flaky, buttery crescent rolls.
I love cheesecakes. I don’t think I have ever met a cheesecake that I didn’t like, whether it’s Banana Pudding Cheesecake, 3-Ingredient No-Bake Cheesecake, or even Cheesecake Dip. That’s why I wanted to try crescent roll cheesecake bars!
I heard they were pretty good and I just needed to see for myself. You may have already guessed that I absolutely loved them and decided to create my own recipe for cheesecake with crescent rolls.
Classic cheesecake is made with a graham cracker crust. This recipe replaces the graham cracker crust with buttery crescent rolls. Not only is there one layer of crescent rolls as the base of this cheesecake, but there is a second layer of flakey dough on top of the cheesecake. The cheesecake filling is completely enclosed in a delicious, tender pastry. It is SO good!
I also love these cheesecake bars because they are super easy to eat. You can cut up the whole tray of cheesecake into perfect squares and then serve the bars on a dessert buffet or as a quick dessert-to-go. I love desserts that are easy, tasty, and a little bit unique. These crescent roll cheesecake bars check all the boxes!
