How To Make cherry cheesecake bars

• Step 1
  Beat together cream cheese, egg yolk, sugar and almond extract until smooth.
• Step 2
  Spray a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray and unroll 1 sheet of crescent dough. If you don't have the sheets, and are using regular crescent rolls, pinch together the perforations.
• Step 3
  Pour cream cheese mixture over the dough, and then spread the cherry pie filling over that. Top with second crescent dough sheet.
• Step 4
  Brush the top with the reserved egg white, and sprinkle with sugar. I used a specialty almond/amaretto flavored sugar, but regular white or sparkling sugar would be nice as well.
• Step 5
  Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until nicely browned. Cool on rack and then refrigerate.
• Step 6
  The filling will be quite runny while warm, but sets up nicely after refrigeration.
