Instructions

With an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy.

In a medium baking dish, layer the bottom completely with croissant dough.
Pour cheesecake batter over the first layer of croissant dough.
With the remaining croissant dough, cover completely the cheesecake batter.
Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for half an hour, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Spread guava jelly to cover the top of cheesecake, about 1/4" thick.
Finish with a layer of whipped topping about 1/2" thick. Keep refrigerated until you're ready to serve.
