Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
Filling Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Cooking Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Gently press each bread slice flat using a rolling pin, creating a thin, uniform surface.
- In a mixing bowl, thoroughly blend cream cheese and powdered sugar until achieving a silky, lump-free consistency.
- Apply the creamy mixture evenly across each flattened bread slice, ensuring complete coverage.
- Create a fragrant cinnamon-sugar blend by whisking brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a separate small bowl.
- Sprinkle the aromatic cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the cream cheese layer, distributing it uniformly.
- Carefully roll each slice into a tight, compact cylinder, sealing the filling inside.
- Prepare the egg wash by vigorously whisking eggs, milk, and vanilla extract in a shallow dish until well combined.
- Carefully immerse each rolled slice into the egg mixture, coating all surfaces thoroughly.
- Heat butter in a skillet over medium temperature (around 350°F) until it begins to foam.
- Gently place roll-ups in the heated pan, rotating periodically to ensure even golden-brown coloration on all sides.
- Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes per side until they develop a crispy, caramelized exterior.
Notes
- Flatten bread slices completely to ensure even rolling and prevent thick, uneven sections.
- Use room temperature cream cheese for smoother, easier spreading without bread tears.
- Choose white sandwich bread with soft, pliable texture for best rolling results.
- Toast the roll-ups carefully to achieve crispy exterior without burning the delicate bread surface.
