Ingredients:
For the Rolls:
- 4 large flour tortillas (soft taco size)
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (adjust to your taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted (for brushing)
For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Cream Filling:
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the cinnamon into the cream cheese mixture, stirring well to incorporate it throughout the filling.
-
Prepare the Tortillas:
- Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush melted butter on one side of each tortilla.

Spread the Cream Cheese Mixture:
- Spread the cinnamon cream cheese mixture evenly on the non-buttered side of each tortilla. Be sure to spread it all the way to the edges.

Roll the Tortillas:
- Carefully roll each tortilla up tightly like a log, ensuring the cream cheese filling stays inside. Once all tortillas are rolled, set them aside.
-
Slice the Rolls:
- Using a sharp knife, slice each rolled tortilla into approximately 1-inch thick pieces. You should get about 6-8 slices per tortilla.
-
Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
- Roll each piece of cinnamon cream roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated.
