Steps

  • 1

    When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 350°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with the softened butter.

    In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, and the vanilla. Mix on high speed until smooth, 60-90 seconds.

    Unroll one can of crescent roll dough into the prepared baking dish, making sure to press together any gaps between the seams. Pour the cream cheese filling over the crescent rolls and spread in an even layer. Unroll the second sheet of crescent roll dough over the filling, pressing together any gaps in the seams. Pour the melted butter evenly over the top, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar and a light dusting of cinnamon.

    Place the baking dish on the grill grates. Close the lid and bake until the top is brown and starting to crisp, 45-50 minutes. Remove from the grill and let cool for 5-10 minutes to allow the filling to set.

    350 ˚F / 177 ˚C
