LXXXIX: Cinnamon Toast "Blinis"

1 8-oz pkg cream cheese, softened
1/2 c sugar
1/4 t vanilla
1 egg yolk
1 t cinnamon
12 slices white bread, crusts removed
3 T butter, melted

Preheat oven to 400*. Mix cream cheese, 1/4 c of the sugar, vanilla and egg yolk with wire whisk until well blended. In separate bowl, mix remaining 1/4 c sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
Flatten each bread slice with rolling pin. Spread 1 side of each slice evenly with 1 rounded T 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 12-15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Serve immediately.
