Serves: 6 roll ups
Ingredients
- 6 slices of bread
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
Instructions
- Remove the crusts from each slice of bread and use a rolling pin to flatten each slice until thin and uniform.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and mix until smooth and creamy.
- Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture across each flattened bread slice, ensuring complete coverage near the edges.
- Carefully roll each bread slice tightly from one end to the other, creating a compact roll-up.
- In a separate small bowl, mix remaining sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
- Brush the exterior of each roll-up with melted butter, then immediately roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat completely.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly toast each roll-up, turning to ensure even golden-brown coloration on all sides.
- Remove from heat, let cool for 1-2 minutes, then slice diagonally and serve warm.
Tips
- Use room temperature cream cheese for the smoothest, most spreadable filling.
- Remove bread crusts completely for a more uniform and elegant look.
- Roll the bread slices tightly to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.
- Use a non-stick skillet to ensure even browning without burning.
- Let the roll ups cool slightly before cutting to help them hold their shape.
- For extra decadence, serve with a drizzle of honey or a side of fresh berries.
- These roll ups are best enjoyed immediately while still warm and crispy.
- Experiment with different flavored cream cheese for unique variations.
