   • Start by trimming the crusts off the bread slices. Using a rolling pin, gently flatten the crustless bread slices to make them more pliable for rolling.

2. Make the Filling:

   • In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, white sugar, and egg yolks. Cream them together until smooth and well combined.

3. Fill and Roll:

   • Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture onto each flattened bread slice. Roll up the bread tightly to enclose the filling, creating little blintzes.

4. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar:

   • Melt the margarine in a shallow dish. In another dish, mix together the light brown sugar and cinnamon. Dip each blintz roll into the melted margarine, ensuring it’s evenly coated, then roll it in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat all sides.

5. Freeze:

   • Place the coated blintzes on a cookie sheet in a single layer. Once all the blintzes are prepared, transfer the cookie sheet to the freezer and freeze until the blintzes are firm.

6. Storage:

   • Once the blintzes are frozen solid, transfer them to Ziploc bags or airtight containers for storage. They can be stored in the freezer for several weeks, ready to bake whenever you need them.

7. Baking:

   • When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the desired number of frozen blintzes on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow for even baking.
   • Do not thaw the blintzes before baking. Bake them directly from frozen for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and heated through.

Serving Suggestions:

• Serve the warm cinnamon blintzes as they are or with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for an extra special touch.
• These blintzes are perfect for brunch gatherings, holiday breakfasts, or as a sweet treat for any occasion.
• Enjoy them with a cup of coffee or tea for a delightful morning or afternoon snack.
