Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, ensuring the seams are sealed to create an even base.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll layer in the baking dish.
Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and gently lay it over the cream cheese filling, pinching seams together as needed to form a top layer.
Brush the melted butter evenly over the top layer of crescent dough.
In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Sprinkle this cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered top layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the dessert is set.
Remove from the oven and allow the dessert to cool for at least 20 minutes. For cleaner slices, refrigerate for an additional 30 minutes.
Slice into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy this creamy, flaky dessert either slightly warm or chilled.
