Ingredients
– 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
– 16 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar

– 2 large eggs

Instructions
Creating the Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Crescent Wreath is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix until fully combined and creamy.
3. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Mixture: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar with 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon. Set aside.
4. Roll Out Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circle on the prepared baking sheet, overlapping them slightly to form a wreath shape.
5. Spread Filling: Spoon the cream cheese mixture onto the center of the wreath, spreading it evenly.
6. Sprinkle Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the cream cheese filling.
7. Fold Dough Over Filling: Starting at the outer edge, fold the points of the crescent triangles over the filling, tucking them underneath the wreath to create a sealed shape.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
9. Cool: Remove the wreath from the oven and allow it to cool on the baking sheet for 15-20 minutes.
10. Prepare Drizzle (Optional): If desired, mix powdered sugar with milk to create a drizzle. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk or powdered sugar until smooth.
11. Drizzle and Serve: Once cooled, drizzle the icing over the wreath, slice, and serve.
