New Mexican Sopapilla Pie

Inspired by the beloved Southwestern treat, this New Mexican Sopapilla Pie takes everything we love about traditional sopapillas—light and fluffy dough, warm cinnamon sugar, and a sweet honey drizzle—and turns it into an easy, sliceable pie that feels appropriate for any and all occasions. This layered treat combines rich cream cheese filling, flaky crescent roll dough, and the familiar flavors of cinnamon, butter, and honey. It’s easy to make, impossible to resist, and just the kind of recipe that earns a permanent spot in your dessert rotation.

This pie starts off with a base of crescent roll dough, pressed into a baking dish to form one solid crust. Next up is the cream cheese filling. Two packages of cream cheese are beaten until it’s light and fluffy, then sweetened with sugar, and a splash of vanilla. The creamy mixture is spread over the top crust and then topped with another layer of crescent dough.
