No-Fuss Cinnamon Cheesecake

“When my friend Dee gave me this recipe I was very skeptical. Who ever heard of cheesecake made with crescent dough? I made it one day when I had 3 back-up desserts and it was one of the first to go. So easy to make and a popular demand by my family, I make it all the time. Hey!! Even my no-impress mother-in-law asked for the recipe!!! Enjoy!”

I made this with 1/3 less fat cream cheese! It was amazing!! I definitely see my family asking me to make this over and over!!

Great recipe- easy!! It was the only food item that was gone at the end of my friend's party. I think that if I use a glass baking dish the next time, I will lower the temperature- the top was a little too brown, but it was still delicious!

I had big hopes, but they didn't come through. Definitely not an attractive dessert, and definitely more of a danish of some sort than a cheesecake. Cold crescent bread doesn't appeal to me. The filling is very tasty, but I would not make again.

I have made this twice now and my husband just loves it. It's a great easy dessert that can be made ahead of time. It's a keeper!

If you can wait until this cools, this is the easiest and best of desserts. Rich and complex. No one can figure it out unless you tell them. One pan makes a lot. I doubled the recipe and had leftovers though everyone flipped over it. Very rich too. I've made it several times. A no-fail recipe for sure.

My pastor came over for lunch and I'd made a small (1/2) size for dessert. During lunch, he mentioned reading an article that pointed to "cinnamon" as the latest discovery in combating cholesterol, heart disease and several types of cancer. I pulled out this cheesecake and we proclaimed it "health food!!" It is one of the best I've ever had; we call it Danish, though, not cheesecake!

This was the most amazing dessert ever!! Unbelievably fast and easy. It disappeared from my house within 24 hours. I followed the recipe exactly, don't change a thing.

I only had 1 package of crescents, so I used an 8x8 pan and halved all of the ingredients. It turned out great! I agree with some other reviewers that it might be more of a breakfast item than a dessert, but either way it is delicious and I'll definitely make it again.

I've already reviewed this, but I came back to print it out and wanted to add that I used Splenda instead of sugar and Smart Balance instead of butter and I still got the best results possible.

This delicious dessert recipe is the best I've enjoyed in a long time! My husband is not really into desserts, but said this one was a "keeper". I used one regular cream cheese and one 1/3less fat cream cheese. Also, I used one regular crescent roll package and the other one with lower fat and it was still delicious. Couldn't find 10 ounce size crescent rolls, so I used 8 ounces. This is a fantastic dessert for company!!!

This recipe is simple and everyone absolutely loved it. It was much better than I expected. I wasn't able to find 10 ounce cans so I had to buy three 8 ounce cans and had left over dough. I also used a little bit smaller pan so the cream cheese would be a thicker.

How can you not be skeptical about this recipe? It just sounds too good to be true... ya better believe it because this cheesecake is amazing. I made it for Christmas as well as some pumpkin pies for a "back up". Well they pies didn't even get touched... I was SO impressed. This one's a keeper!

I made this for dessert last night and it was incredibly easy and very good---everyone loved it. Next time I make it, which will be soon, I will probably put a fruit topping on instead of cinn and sugar.

I would rate this a 5 * for simplicity. It has great flavor but as one mentioned before it isn't one of the prettiest desserts you could make. I will add ch. nuts on top next time. It is much better chilled. I agree, it is more like a cheese danish. You have to try it!

This was more like a coffeecake than a cheesecake...but nonetheless very delicious and easy! I added pecans to the top with cinnamon and sugar...YUM! Even my finicky son said it was good...and he rarely says that! Try it!

This was really good. I too had a "backup" dessert because I really didn't know what to expect. Not really a cheesecake, I don't know what you would call it except delicious.
