Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Mix 8 oz of cream cheese with 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla until creamy.

Set the cream cheese mixture aside.

Spray a baking pan lightly with non-stick cooking spray.

Unwind 1 package of crescent rolls and divide it into two sections.

Lay the first section of crescent rolls in the bottom of the pan, pressing it together to cover the bottom.

Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the uncooked dough in the pan.

Unwind the second section of crescent rolls and lay it on top of the cream cheese filling, pressing it together as needed.

Melt 1/2 stick of butter in a microwave-safe dish for about 30 seconds, stirring to ensure it melts completely.

Sprinkle 1/2 cup of cinnamon sugar over the top of the crescent rolls.

Pour the melted butter evenly over the cinnamon sugar and crescent rolls.

Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F for about 25 minutes.

Allow the cheesecake to cool before serving.
