05 - Whip the cream cheese until smooth, and then blend in the egg and sugar until creamy.
06 - Spoon or pipe the cream cheese filling into the 'X' cuts on each roll.
07 - Put the dish in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the tops are golden and the filling is set.

# Notes:

01 - Leftovers can go in the fridge and stay fresh for 4 days.
02 - Swap rolls for gluten-free ones if you need to avoid gluten.
