In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and 4 teaspoons cinnamon. Sprinkle a generous 2 tablespoons of cinnamon-sugar mixture over brushed phyllo. Sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons pecans. Cut the 2 layered sheets lengthwise to create two long strips. (Do not cut if the phyllo comes in smaller sheets.) Place a slice of cream cheese about 2 inches from the end of the strip. Spoon a well-rounded tablespoon of the pumpkin mixture on top of the cream cheese.\\
