Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Spray an 8x8 square baking dish with cooking spray.

In a mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1/3 cup of granulated sugar and 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.

Mix until smooth and fluffy.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the cream cheese mixture and mix well.

Open the crescent roll dough and tear it in half, placing the first half into the bottom of the baking dish, pinching the seams together.

Roll out the second half of the crescent roll dough with some flour to cover the top layer, ensuring it overlaps the edges of the bottom layer.

Spread 4 tablespoons of melted salted butter over the top layer of dough.

Mix 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and sprinkle it over the buttered dough.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Let it set for 10 minutes before cutting into pieces.
