French Toast Roll-Ups

one 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 egg yolk
1 cup sugar
24 slices white sandwich bread, crusts removed
1 T. ground cinnamon
3 T. butter, melted


In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, egg yolk, 1/4 cup sugar until smooth; set aside. Roll out each bread slice with a rolling pin. Spread cheese mixture over bread, distributing evenly. Roll up each slice jellyroll-style, place seam-side down on a baking sheet. In a shallow dish, combine remaining 3/4 cup sugar, cinnamon. Brush butter over rollups then roll them in cinnamon-sugar mixture, until completely coated. Repeat with remaining rollups, placing them on baking sheet after coating. Cover, freeze at least 2 hours, or up to 2 months. Just before serving, preheat oven to 400. Bake rollups 10-12 minutes, or until golden.
