Step 2

Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over the length of bread. Be sure filling goes to all outer edges.

Step 3

Position cherries tightly together on one of the short ends. Pack them closely together and make sure they reach the outer edges. If they extend over a bit that is better than being short.

Starting at the short end with the cherries roll the bread up tightly. Repeat with the other 4 pieces of bread.

Step 5

Put the 2 sandwich rolls end to end and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Twist the ends closed. Refrigerate at least 4 hours but overnight is even better.
