Strawberry Cheesecake Quesadillas


  • Author: Imili Johnson
  • Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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.
