Preheat the Oven: Start by setting your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Prepare the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and separate it into individual triangles.
Add the Filling: On each triangle of dough, evenly spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture. Then, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the cream cheese.
Roll the Dough: Starting from the wider end, roll up each triangle tightly to form the crescent shape.
Apply the Topping: Brush the top of each roll with melted butter, and sprinkle a mix of cinnamon and a little extra sugar over them.
Bake: Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake them in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
