# Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Transfer the cooked bites to a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until cooked through.

While baking, warm the cream cheese icing in the microwave for 15-20 seconds until it reaches a dippable consistency.

Once baked, remove the bites from the oven and toss them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated.

Serve immediately with the warm cream cheese icing on the side for dipping.

Ensure the cream cheese icing is warmed slightly to make dipping easier.
