Notes
- Store leftover cheesecake crescent rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
- To reheat, warm them in a low oven or microwave in short bursts to avoid a soggy result.
- Serve these warm with a dollop of your favorite fruit preserves or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- For an extra rich flavor, use European-style cream cheese, which has a higher fat content.
