Cinnamon Cream Cheese Spread

This was inspired by the Grape Nuts Bread recipe when the author said she likes cream cheese on her bread.  I tried this for my Winter Squash Sourdough Bread and it was great.

Cinnamon Cream Cheese Spread
8 oz. cream cheese
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2-4 Tbsp. sugar (to taste)
1-2 Tbsp. milk (opt.)

In a small, microwave safe bowl, place cream cheese and microwave on high 20 seconds and then in 10 second intervals until just soft enough to stir.  Add cinnamon, vanilla, and sugar and stir until mixed and sugar dissolves.  Refrigerate.  Spread on bread or bagels, or muffins.  You can add the milk to change the spreading consistency if desired.

Notes: Now I can't wait to try this on some other quick breads! I think it might be lovely on Carrot Bread, Bag End Brown Bread and A.M. Delight Muffins.
