Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf wheat bread
- 8 ounces cream cheese at room temp
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup of sugar may need to double
- 1 tablespoon of cinnamon may need to double
- 1/2 cup melted and cooled unsalted butter may need to double
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, egg, vanilla, and sugar until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer.
- Lay the bread in stacks of two on a baking sheet and spread the cream cheese filling between each pair to create sandwiches.
- Put the baking sheet in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up the filling.
- Trim the crusts off the sandwiches, then cut each sandwich into three sticks, placing them back on the baking sheet.
- Freeze the sticks for 30 minutes to 1 hour again.
- Combine the cinnamon and remaining sugar in a small bowl; place melted butter in another bowl.
- Quickly dip each stick in melted butter and then in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat completely.
- Return the coated sticks to the baking sheet and freeze for another hour. Once frozen, transfer the sticks to a zipper seal bag.
- To bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees and place the desired number of stuffed sticks on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes and enjoy!
Notes
Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easy mixing.
These can be prepared ahead and stored in the freezer for quick breakfasts.
Adjust the amount of cinnamon and sugar according to your taste preference.
