Place one can of the crescent rolls in a 9 x 13 baking dish but do not spray it with nonstick spray. Pinch edges together to make a bottom crust.

Spread the sweet potatoes over the rolls.

Cut the cream cheese up in small pieces and place on top of all the ingredients.

Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and pinch together to make the top crust. Place on top of the other the ingredients.

Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes until crescent rolls are brown on top. Remove from oven and let cool.

Whisk together the topping ingredients and drizzle over rolls.
