Ingredients

2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent rolls
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
0.75 cup sugar
1 egg, separated
1 teaspoon lemon juice
0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Press one package of unseparated crescent rolls into the bottom of a greased 9x12-inch baking dish.
In a bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, egg yolk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Spread the mixture evenly onto the crescent roll "crust" in the baking dish.
Cover the cream cheese filling with the remaining package of unseparated crescent roll dough. Brush the top with egg white.
Bake in the preheated oven until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, approximately 25 to 35 minutes. Let it cool completely before slicing and serving.
