1 cup sugar
1 stick of butter, melted
Spray a 9 x 13 pan with Pam
Open and spread 1 can of crescent rolls into bottom of dish
Mix 3 bars of softened cream cheese with 1 cup of sugar; beat until fluffy
Spread mixture evenly over crescent rolls in dish
Spread the other can of crescent rolls on top of mixture
Pour melted butter over the top
