Description
A delicious and easy recipe for creamy cinnamon roll-ups made with cream cheese and sugar, perfect for a warm snack or breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
- 1 package (approximately 8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup of sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Prepare the Bread: Flatten each slice of bread using a rolling pin.
- Assemble the Roll-Ups: Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each slice of flattened bread. Carefully roll up each slice tightly.
- Coating: In a shallow bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon for coating. Dip each roll-up in melted butter, then roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
- Cooking: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the roll-ups in the skillet and cook until all sides are golden brown, turning occasionally. This should take about 6-8 minutes.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is properly softened to make spreading easier.
- Try different fillings, such as Nutella or fruit preserves, for a variety of flavors.
- These roll-ups are best served warm, but you can store leftovers in the fridge and reheat them in the oven for a quick snack.
- For an extra touch, drizzle with a simple icing made from powdered sugar and milk.
- Enjoy your Creamy Cinnamon Roll-Ups with a warm cup of coffee or tea!
