Cinnamon Toast Blinis Recipe

  • 1 (8 ounce) package PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 12 slices white bread, crusts removed
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix cream cheese, 1/4 cup of the sugar, vanilla and egg yolk with wire whisk until well blended. In separate bowl, mix remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
  2. Flatten each bread slice with rolling pin. Spread 1 side of each slice evenly with 1 rounded 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.
  3. Place each piece, seam side down, on baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 min. or until edges are lightly browned. Serve immediately.
