Trim the crusts from the sandwich bread and use a rolling pin to flatten each slice.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of cream cheese and 1/2 tablespoon of strawberry jam (or your chosen filling) across each slice of bread.
Tightly roll up each slice of bread, sealing the edges by pressing gently.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated but not overly soaked.
Place the coated roll-ups in the skillet seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown, turning gently to evenly brown all sides.
Once cooked, transfer the roll-ups to a plate and repeat the cooking process with the remaining butter and roll-ups.
Optional: Sprinkle the cooked roll-ups with additional sugar or cinnamon sugar for extra sweetness.
Serve warm, either as is or with fresh fruit, syrup, or whipped cream on the side.
