Add melted cheeses and remaining ingredients to a food processor; blend until dough forms.
Place dough between parchment papers dusted with sweetener; roll into a 10x12-inch rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick.
Cut the rectangle into 8 strips, each approximately 1.5 inches wide.
Mix cinnamon and sweetener; brush each strip with melted butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon mixture.
Roll each strip from one end to the other, using parchment to guide; arrange in greased muffin tin cups.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 17-19 minutes until golden.
For icing, heat butter and cream cheese, then stir in powdered sweetener until smooth; spread over warm buns.
