Cheesecake Stuffed Churros - total time 20 minutes

I don't know what rock I have been living under for so long... but I had never heard of churros until last year.  I love cinnamon sugar, how could I have never heard of these delicious treats?!  And there is a super easy way to make them, well, something very similar.  Add some cheesecake filling and you're in heaven.

1 cup cream cheese
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 pkg puff pastry
.5 cup sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
3 tbsp butter, melted

1.  Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Combine cream cheese, egg, and vanilla and beat together.  Roll out pastry dough and cut each sheet into 6 sections. 
2.  Scoop a little over a tablespoon of cheesecake mixture on top of the pastry.  Fold pastry and press closed with a fork.  Bake for 10 minutes.  While baking, combine sugar and cinnamon.
3.  Brush pastry with melted butter and coat with cinnamon sugar mixture.
