Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter, for frying
- 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs (optional, for extra cheesecake texture)
- Chocolate syrup or honey (optional, for drizzle)
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Cheesecake Filling
In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. If you want a more authentic cheesecake vibe, stir in the graham cracker crumbs.
Step 2: Assemble the Quesadillas
Lay out the tortillas. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture on one half of each tortilla. Place a layer of sliced strawberries on top of the filling. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling to make a half-moon shape.
Step 3: Cook the Quesadillas
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, place the folded quesadilla in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, adding more butter as needed.
Step 4: Slice and Serve
Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice each quesadilla into wedges.
Step 5: Add Toppings
Dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with chocolate syrup or honey for an extra indulgent touch.
