Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 pan with Pam.

In mixing bowl. blend the cream cheese, egg yolk & sugar till nice & creamy. Pour over the layer of crescent on the pan.
With a spoon, dollop strawberry jam all over the cream cheese mix. With a knife, swirl the jam all over.
Lay the second layer of crescent roll over the cheese mixture making sure all the cheese is covered.
Lightly whip up the egg white with a fork and brush over the top of the crescent roll. Sprinkle with the reserved sugar.
