Ingredients
  

Crust and Topping
  • 1 can (8 oz) Refrigerated crescent roll dough Unrolled, not overlapped
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
Cream Cheese Filling
  • 8 oz Cream cheese Softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Peach Topping
  • 1 can (21 oz) Sliced peaches in heavy syrup Drained well
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
Optional Glaze
  • 1/2 cup Powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Milk Or heavy cream

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Press the crescent roll dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Sprinkle the 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the dough layer.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the 1/2 cup sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat until the mixture is light and creamy.
  4. Gently fold the drained peach slices and the cornstarch into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Spread this peach cream cheese mixture evenly over the raw crescent dough base.
  5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cream cheese filling is set and the edges of the crust are golden brown.
  6. Let the bars cool completely on a wire rack. For the optional glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bars before slicing and serving.

Notes

Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling. Draining the peaches very well is crucial to prevent a watery bottom layer. These bars are best served chilled or at room temperature.
