3. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
4. Spread the Cream Cheese Mixture:
Evenly distribute the cream cheese mixture over the first layer of crescent roll dough in the baking dish.
5. Second Layer of Crescent Roll Dough:
Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and carefully place it over the cream cheese layer.
Press the seams together to create a smooth top layer.
6. Apply the Butter and Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture:
Brush the melted butter evenly over the top layer of crescent roll dough.
In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and the remaining 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
Sprinkle this mixture generously over the buttered dough.
7. Bake the Casserole:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is crisp and golden brown.
8. Cool and Serve:
Allow the casserole to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing it into squares.
Optionally, drizzle with honey for added sweetness before serving.
