Let cool completely before frosting (let mine sit 2 hours).
Frosting:
In mixing bowl beat together cream cheese and butter until smooth. Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating for 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
Spread on cooled bars.
Sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top for garnish, I used a sieve to create just a light dusting.
Cut into squares when ready to serve.

Store chilled because of the frosting.
