It’s going to be storming here soon. The weather reports are warning that this will be the worst storm we have had in over three years! And while, I know we need the rain, I know how gloomy its going to be. But while the sun is still shining, I would like to share a wonderful and very easy recipe for a dessert that looks like it took hours to make.
After viewing this recipe many times on the web, I thought it would be fun to make this with some strawberry preserves added in to give it an extra twist of flavor. The possibilities on added fillings to this dish are endless!  I’m sure any flavor of fruit preserves would be delicious! And you could also try adding chocolate chips, Nutella, or even shredded coconut. Wouldn’t that be yummy!
This Strawberry Sopapilla Cheesecake recipe was very easy and would be perfect for any gathering or occasion.  Quick tip for those who are making this recipe: Make it a day ahead and let it chill overnight so it will be easier to cut when serving.
Ingredients:
2-8oz blocks of cream cheese softened
1/4 cup strawberry preserves
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon of cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In the bowl of a mixer, combine cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Unroll 1 package of crescent rolls on the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 baking pan. Make sure to close the seams of crescent rolls. Spread cream cheese mixture on top of crescent layer. Place dollops of strawberry preserves, on top of cream cheese layer, and swirl strawberry preserves throughout. Unroll the remaining package of crescent rolls on top of cream cheese layer, and carefully close any seams.
