• 1/2 cup soft butter
• 3 oz. soft cream cheese

Divide dough in half. Roll each half between two sheets of wax paper to about an 8″ x 12″ rectangle. Brush the surface with a little bit of melted butter and then sprinkle a little less than half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top.

Beginning with the short side, roll up tightly into a log. Repeat with the other half of the dough.

Brush each log with a bit of the melted butter and then roll each log into the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture to coat outside. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
