1. Start by flattening each slice of bread with a rolling pin. This is a fun step to get the kids involved—my little ones love helping with this part!
2. In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on one side of each flattened bread slice. Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon.
4. Roll up each slice tightly and set aside.
5. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until well combined.
6. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
7. Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated, then place in the skillet.
8. Cook the roll-ups for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
9. Immediately after cooking, roll each in granulated sugar mixed with the remaining cinnamon for that perfect sweet coating.

Pro tip from my kitchen: make sure your skillet isn’t too hot. You want the roll-ups to cook evenly and develop that lovely golden crust.
