Crescent Roll Cheese Coffeecake

Directions

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. 2
   In a 10 inch cake pan,lay out the separated triangles from one crescent roll in a star pattern, with corners overlapping. Pat down in pan until the bottom is completely covered, and a little up the sides. It's nice if there are some points up the sides to lay over the topping.
3. 3
   Put pan in oven for 4-5 minutes.

   From the second tube, take four crescents, roll them out and cut them in half the long way (so you have eight small triangles). Set aside.
5. 5
   Beat cream cheese, sugar, flour and egg together. Stir in almond extract. Remove pan from oven.
6. 6
   Pour the cream cheese mixture in the pan, gently smooth out.
7. 7
   Fold over any points from the sides of the pan.
8. 8
   Lay the additional pastry triangles around the cake like a spoke, with the thin points to the center.
9. 9
   Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar.

    Bake for 24 minutes, or until top is golden.
