Strawberry Cheese Cake Breakfast Rollups
What You’ll Need
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons strawberry jelly
1 egg yolk
3/4 cup sugar, divided
22 slices white bread, crusts removed
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons butter, melted
Syrup (optional)
Sliced strawberries and blueberries for topping (optional)
What to Do
In a medium bowl mix together the cream cheese, strawberry jelly, egg yolk, and 1/4 cup sugar until smooth; set aside.
With a rolling pin, roll out each slice of bread so it’s about ¼-inch thick. Spread cream cheese mixture over bread, distributing evenly. Roll up each slice jellyroll-style and place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
In a shallow dish, combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar and the cinnamon. Brush melted butter over rollups then roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, until completely coated. Repeat with remaining rollups, returning them to baking sheet after coating.
Cover and freeze at least 2 hours or up to 2 months.
Just before serving, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bake rollups 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Serve as is, or topped with syrup, and/or berries.
