👩‍🍳 How to Make Strawberry Cream Cheese Crescent Bake

Step 1: Prepare the Baking Dish

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Add the Bottom Crescent Layer

Unroll one can of crescent dough and press it into the bottom of the baking dish, sealing the seams as best as you can.

Step 3: Make the Cream Cheese Filling

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the diced strawberries.

Step 4: Assemble the Bake

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent layer. Unroll the second can of crescent dough and carefully lay it over the top.

Step 5: Add the Topping

Brush the melted butter over the top layer. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 6: Bake

Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and cooked through. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
