Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the baking dish to form an even layer. Pinch together any seams.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent dough layer.
Spread the raspberry preserves over the cream cheese layer, being careful to distribute it evenly.
Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and carefully place it over the raspberry layer. Gently press the edges to seal and pinch any seams.
Brush the melted butter over the top layer of dough.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the baking dish.
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk to make the glaze.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled crescent squares.
Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy your Raspberry Crescent Squares!
