Health and fertility benefits of Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake Dip

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).

Ingredients

1 package cream cheese
1/4 c. powdered sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon, divided
2 tbsp. butter, melted
2 tsp. sugar

Instructions

Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a medium-sized bowl. Beat with a whisk or silicone spatula until the mixture is light, fluffy and no longer lumpy (about 2-3 minutes). You could also use an electric mixer.
In a separate bowl, combine remaining cinnamon, melted butter and sugar. Mix to combine. Pour this mixture into the cream cheese batter, folding it in just enough to create cinnamon-sugar swirls in the dip.
Serve with graham crackers, apple slices or whatever you'd prefer.
