Crispy Cinnamon Rollups

 

These are great little snacks to keep on-hand in the freezer.

1 loaf sliced white bread
1-8 ounce cream cheese
1 egg yolk
¾ cup powdered sugar
1 cup sugar
1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
¾ cup butter/margarine, melted

Remove top crust and flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin.  Mix together the cream cheese, egg yolk and powdered sugar and spread 1 Tablespoon of filling on each slice.  Roll up each slice. 

Mix together sugar and cinnamon.  Dip each piece in melted butter and then in sugar/cinnamon mixture.  Place on cookie sheet so they don’t touch.

Bake 350 degrees for 17 minutes or until browned.
They freeze well and can be microwaved a little to reheat.

**note** run the removed crusts in a blender to make bread crumbs.
