Instructions

Spray a 9 x 13 cake pan with cooking spray. Put the crescent rolls in the bottom of the pan pressing seams together. Using a mixer blend cream cheese, white sugar, almond extract and egg yolk.

Spread over the crescent rolls. Spread the cherry pie filling on top of the cream cheese mixture. Combine the oats and brown sugar and sprinkle on top of the pie filling. Add the nuts. Cut the butter into small pieces on top of the oats and nuts.

Bake in preheated 325 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

Glaze Instructions

Make the glaze by combining powdered sugar, milk and vanilla extract and mixing with a spoon. You can add more milk if not thin enough or more sugar if too thin. Drizzle over your cheesecake bars.
