Pinterest Eateries

Monday night after dinner I was cravvvving something sweet and whatever we had at the house wasn't cutting it. Ice cream? Nope. Dry cereal? No thanks. Any 100 calorie snack sweet? I'll pass. I wanted something baked and delicious but didn't want to make a whole batch of cupcakes or cookies. I had to settle for a Special K bar and hope to remedy my sweet fix after a trip to the grocery store the next day.

I searched Pinterest for something I had been wanting to try for a while/had seen lots of people pinning. I'm not a huge chocolate person, so something with either fruit or cinnamon-sugar sounded like it would hit the spot. Sopapilla Cheesecake won the battle, although it was a close call.

I decided the kitchen was calling my name after I poured my 2nd glass of wine. What's classier than cooking with a glass of wine in hand? Well, probably a lot of things but it sounded great at the time.

I tried to half the recipe but a few of my halving skills were not in tip top shade so although I only used one can of crescent rolls and 8 oz of cream cheese instead of 2 packages, I still used 1 cup of sugar as opposed to half a cup and 4 oz of melted butter rather than 2. Oops?

Outcome: Although not nearly as pretty as the website's pic of it...I thought it tasked almost a little bit too sweet (possibly due to the copious amounts of sugar I may be to blame for), but over all pretty yummy! It was super easy and quick to make, so definitely something worth trying again...with more accurate measurements this time around.
