Ingredients
Scale

- ½ cup (113 g) butter, melted
- ½ cup (100 g) granulated white sugar
- 3 tbsps (22 g) powdered sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Prep Base: Trim bread crusts to create uniform slices, then flatten each piece using a rolling pin for smooth rolling.
- Create Filling: Blend cream cheese and powdered sugar until achieving a silky, luxurious texture.
- Prepare Coatings: Establish two shallow dishes – one with cinnamon-sugar mixture and another with melted butter for dipping.
- Assemble Rolls: Spread cream cheese mixture across flattened bread, ensuring complete surface coverage, then tightly roll into compact cylinders.
- Coat Rolls: Dunk each roll first in melted butter, then generously roll in cinnamon-sugar blend for complete coverage.
- Bake Transformation: Arrange rolls on baking sheet with slight spacing, then place in preheated oven at 350°F for 20 minutes.
- Finish and Serve: Watch for golden-brown exterior with crispy edges, remove from oven, and let cool briefly before serving warm.
Notes
- Trim Bread Carefully: Remove crusts precisely to ensure uniform rolling and a neat, professional appearance.
- Flatten Evenly: Use a rolling pin with gentle, consistent pressure to create a smooth surface that prevents tearing during filling.
- Mix Cream Cheese Thoroughly: Blend ingredients until completely smooth to avoid lumps and achieve a creamy, spreadable texture.
- Coat Completely: Ensure full butter and cinnamon-sugar coverage by rolling each piece generously, creating a crispy, flavorful exterior.
