Sopapilla Cheesecake

recipe from: http://www.pillsbury.com/recipes/sopapilla-cheesecake-bars/65ec128f-2acc-417b-8745-06c182d3134a

Ingredients:

2 cans (8 oz each) Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls (I used the Stop&Shop brand)
2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, SOFTENED
1 cup + 1/2 cup sugar, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Very lightly grease a 13x9 glass baking dish and roll out one can of crescent rolls so that it covers the bottom and forms a single sheet (push the perforations together). In a bowl combine both (softened) packages of cream cheese along with 1 cup of sugar and the vanilla. Mix well until combined. Spread cream cheese mixture over the crescent layer, forming an even layer. Now top the cream cheese layer with the other package of crescent rolls - it should be pushed into an even, smooth layer.
Mix the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar with the cinnamon. Melt the butter, and pour it over the top layer. Then evenly distribute the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until center is set. Cut into bars. After it cools, store in the refrigerator.

Nutella Cheesecake Swirl Brownies

from http://teenagetaste.com/2011/08/28/nutella-cheesecake-brownies/

Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
¾ cup + 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (I used Hershey's Special Dark)
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup + 2 tablespoons water
¼ cup applesauce
½ cup canola oil
1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
¾ cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 tablespoons Nutella


Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Pour in water, applesauce, and oil; mix until well blended. Spread evenly in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.
In a small bowl, stir together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Microwave on high for 10-15 seconds or until soft and easy to pour. Pour evenly over the brownie batter, drop Nutella by the spoonfuls on top, and make swirls in the batter with a knife.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
