Years ago Robin Sue, from Big Red Kitchen, brought these unbelievably tasty morsels to my home. I ate a respectable amount during our get together, but as soon as we were cleaning up I crammed entire fist fulls into my mouth while I walked the plate to the kitchen sink. I HAD to have this recipe. She graciously gave me the recipe - which I quickly passed to my mother Bobi. She in turn makes these pieces of heaven on a regular basis - and always gets requests for the recipe. I told Robin to blog about them - and she didn't remember what I was talking about. How could she forget these perfect little treats? How could anyone forget these cinnamon sugar coated lumps of love?

GOOD & EASY
You can't miss with Cinnamon Twist "Blinis"
These Blinis are a great addition to breakfast or lunch and if you need a dessert you can take the Kraft Kitchen Tip and dip half of the Blinis in chocolate. Whenever you need a treat to go, these fit the bill, and so I am off and running with a platter of these to a meeting tonight. These might even work for book clubs or Bible studies. You can have these with bacon and eggs in the morning, or tea and coffee as a snack, they are winners anytime.
1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese softened
1/2 cup sugar, divided
1/4 tsp. vanilla
1 egg yolk
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
12 slices white bread, crusts removed
3 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix cream cheese, 1/4 cup of sugar, vanilla and egg. In separate bowl, mix remaining 1/4 cup sugar with cinnamon and set aside.
Flatten each bread slice with rolling pin. Spread 1 side of each slice
evenly with 1 Tbsp. cream cheese mixture. Starting at short end, tightly roll up. Brush each roll with butter; roll in reserved cinnamon-sugar. Slice each roll into 3 pieces.
Place each piece, seam side down, on baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve immediately.
Kraft Tip: Finished, baked rolls can be dipped halfway into melted Bakers Dipping Chocolate.

It's a good thing I have good friends like you to remember things for me. I did forget about these! I don't even have the recipe anymore so I am glad you blogged about these yummy treats. I will have to add these back into the rotation. I think the chocolate would be very nice!
Robin always has the best recipes. I just made monkey bread for breakfast but these look a bit healthier but still absolutely delicious.
We will be having a busy week and will need all those great recipes (like this one) so keep them coming!
I don't think I have had these. But I will now. Thanks for sharing Robin's recipe.
OMG. MUST> HAVE. NOW! Wow, I love this idea!
Yea! A reason for me to buy white bread. I do get tired of trying to be healthy and eat only whole wheat.
I just printed out the recipes. :)
These look so super yummy!
