Ingredients
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp granulated sugar (plus more for topping)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup diced fresh strawberries
4 (6-inch) flour tortillas
2 tsp butter (for pan and tortillas)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Strawberry sauce (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese filling on one tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
Heat 1 teaspoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the filled tortilla into the skillet, cheesecake side up.
Spread butter on the second tortilla and place it butter-side up over the filling.
Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until golden brown and crispy.
In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and a little sugar. Sprinkle this mixture over the hot quesadilla.
Let rest for 2 minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve warm with strawberry sauce for dipping or drizzling.
Notes
You can swap strawberries for other fresh berries or even fruit preserves.
For extra indulgence, add mini chocolate chips to the filling.
Best served warm, but leftovers can be reheated in a skillet or toaster oven.
