  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8 roll-ups

Ingredients

  • For the filling:
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the roll-ups:
  • 8 slices white sandwich bread, crusts removed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For coating:
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Remove crusts from bread and flatten each slice with a rolling pin.
  3. Spread a thin layer of filling on each slice and roll tightly into logs.
  4. Whisk eggs, milk, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla in a shallow bowl.
  5. Dip each roll-up into the mixture, coating evenly without soaking.
  6. Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  7. Cook roll-ups seam-side down first, turning until all sides are golden brown.
  8. Roll warm pieces in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  9. Serve immediately while warm and crisp.

Notes

  • Roll bread tightly to prevent unraveling.
  • Do not oversoak in egg mixture to avoid sogginess.
  • Use soft bread for easier rolling.
  • Add jam or chocolate chips for variation.
  • Store leftovers in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat in skillet or oven for best texture.
  • Avoid microwaving to keep them crispy.
  • Freeze cooked roll-ups for longer storage.
