Sopapilla Cheesecake Pie on January 12, 2014 at 10:53 PM



Old Dominion Iron Chefs had our Mexican DOG( Dutch Oven Gathering) yesterday this is the dessert i made for it. Next time i make it i will add some fresh fruit.

Ingredients
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon Mexican vanilla extract
2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
3/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/4 cup honey

Directions
1.Preheat dutch oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare 12 inch dutch with cooking spray or dutch oven liner.
2.Beat the cream cheese with 1 cup of sugar and the vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.
3.Unroll the cans of crescent roll dough. Press one piece into the bottom of a 12 inch dutch oven. Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture into the dutch oven, then cover with the remaining piece of crescent dough. Stir together 3/4 cup of sugar, cinnamon, and butter. Dot the mixture over the top of the cheesecake.
4.Bake until the crescent dough has puffed and turned golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with honey. Cool completely in the pan before serving.

What kind of fruit do you think will go well in this? It looks delicious!

Apples would probably go quite well, raspberries as well.

That looks good!
There are two rules of Dutch Oven Cooking:
1) If you cook too much food, share.
2) Cook too much food.
