Ingredients
- 10 small flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1/4 cup strawberry sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut the flour tortillas into triangle shapes (like nachos) and place them on a baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the tortilla triangles.
- Bake the tortilla triangles for 8-10 minutes or until they are crispy and golden brown.
- While the chips are cooling, prepare the cheesecake mixture. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the heavy cream and continue to beat until the mixture thickens to a whipped consistency.
- Once the chips have cooled, spread them out on a serving platter.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the chips and spread it out evenly.
- Top with chopped fresh strawberries and drizzle with strawberry sauce.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Fruit Variation: Feel free to swap in other fruits like blueberries or raspberries for a different flavor.
- Storage: For best results, serve immediately to keep the chips crispy. If you have leftovers, store the chips and cheesecake mixture separately. The cheesecake lasts up to 2 days in the fridge, but the chips lose their crunch over time.
- Substitutes: For a lighter version, you can use Greek yogurt or dairy-free cream cheese.
