Notes

  • Let cream cheese soften so it's easier to mix and spread
  • Sheets of crescent dough
  • When pouring butter over the top be sure it's spread evenly we use a basting brush to spread the melted butter around
  • Ensure there are no pools of butter keep spreading it out if butter puddles exist - this will make a more uniform looking top crust
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture with your fingers evenly across the melted butter
  • Store extras in the refrigerator
