Tasty Tuesday ~~ Sopapilla Cheesecake

Because I love y'all so much, I'm giving you a bib warning up front. My wonderful, beautiful, smart stepdaughter Jessica made this drool-making dessert for my birthday this past weekend, and I think you'll like it a LOT. Yep, it meets Gumbo Writer's criteria -- easy, quick and g-o-o-d!

[P.S. to Jess --- Nana LOVES the crock pot liners! And a personal request to y'all: please keep Jess and her husband Bill and the whole family in prayer. He is leaving for Afghanistan this month to serve for a year. God bless our military families for their tremendous sacrifices!]


Sopapilla Cheesecake

8 oz. fat free or reduced fat cream cheese (softened)
1 cup sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla
1 pkg. Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry 
2 Tbsp. melted butter (marg. or Smart Balance)

Mix cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Put in microwave for 10-20 seconds in microwave to warm it up. 

Place pastry sheet on greased cookie sheet. Spread mixture almost to the edges. Top with a second pastry sheet. Pinch edges together. Spread with melted butter. Sprinkle on mixed sugar and cinnamon.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool a bit, then cut and serve. Watch your guests' faces light up! (Refrigerate leftovers -- yeah, like there'll be any of those.) :D
