Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I start by preparing the filling. In a mixing bowl, I combine the softened cream cheese, sugar, and a tablespoon of cinnamon. It creates this wonderful fluffy mixture that you can’t resist tasting (be careful, it goes fast!). After that, I take my slices of bread and roll them flat with a rolling pin—this is one of the most fun parts! It not only helps the roll-ups hold together better but also makes them easier to stuff.
