I'm working on having my own cookbook published, and this recipe immediately went under my section of desserts. " Ingredients 2 (8-ounce) packages crescent rolls2 (8-ounces) blocks cream cheese, softened1/2 cup sugar, divided1 egg, separated1 teaspoon vanilla extract1 teaspoon ground cinnamon1/2 cup chopped nuts Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 9″ X 13″ X 2″ baking pan. Press one tube of rolls on bottom of pan, sealing perforations. Beat cream cheese with 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add egg yolk and vanilla;blend. Pour cream cheese mixture over rolls. Spread evenly. Spread second tube of rolls over cream cheese. (I usually roll it out on a floured board so it’s spread wide enough to cover). Seal edges to sides of pan. Slightly beat egg white. Brush over rolls. Mix remaining 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon and nuts and sprinkle over the top. Bake 30-35 minutes or until brown. Serve warm. May be prepared a day ahead – remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Marsha Baker, Pioneer, Ohio
