Ingredients
Scale
Roll Ups:
- 1 loaf white bread (thin slices)
- 5 1/2 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- 3/4 cups sugar
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter (melted)
Instructions
- Prepare the bread: Cut off the crusts from each slice of white bread. Then, using a rolling pin, flatten each slice evenly to create a thin base for rolling.
- Make the cream cheese filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
- Prepare cinnamon sugar mix: In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Stir to blend evenly and set aside.
- Assemble the roll ups: Spread about 1 to 1½ tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture evenly onto each flattened bread slice. Carefully roll each slice up tightly.
- Coat the rolls: Dip each rolled bread piece into the melted butter, ensuring it is well coated. Then immediately dip it into the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating thoroughly.
- Place for baking: Arrange the coated rolls on an ungreased cookie sheet in a single layer, leaving some space between each.
- Bake: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 16 to 20 minutes, or until the roll ups turn golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
- Serve warm: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm for the best taste and texture.
- Enjoy: Serve these cinnamon cream cheese roll ups as a delightful breakfast or dessert treat that everyone will love.
Notes
- Use thin slices of white bread for best results; thick bread may not roll as easily.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to blend smoothly with powdered sugar.
- For extra flavor, try adding a dash of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture.
- Serve immediately after baking or reheat briefly before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat in the oven to refresh.
