Description
A delicious twist on traditional strawberry shortcake, these cheesecake rolls combine fresh strawberries, cream cheese, and whipped cream wrapped in flour tortillas.
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to macerate and release juices.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Spoon some of the macerated strawberries over the cream cheese layer, then add a dollop of whipped cream on top.
- Carefully roll the tortilla tightly, starting from one end and rolling to the other. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Once all tortillas are rolled, place them seam-side down on a serving platter. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
- Before serving, slice each roll into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs for added texture.
Notes
- For a chocolate twist, add cocoa powder to the cream cheese mixture or drizzle melted chocolate over the rolls before serving.
- Substitute the strawberries with other berries like blueberries or raspberries for a mixed berry version.
