🥄 Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven & Prepare Baking Dish
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Grease a round cake pan or pie dish lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
Step 2: Prepare the Bread
-
Lay each slice of bread flat and gently roll with a rolling pin to flatten slightly.
-
This makes it easier to roll without cracking and ensures a soft, even texture.
Step 3: Make the Filling
-
In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
-
Mix until smooth and creamy.
-
Optional: Fold in fresh berries or a spoonful of jam for fruity pockets.
Step 4: Assemble the Rolls
-
Spread a thin layer of cream cheese filling over each slice of bread.
-
Roll the bread tightly from one end to the other, creating small rolls.
-
Arrange the rolls upright in a circular pattern in the prepared pan, forming a wreath shape.
