Ingredients

1/2 cup Cream Cheese softened
2 tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup Strawberries diced
4 Tortillas 6 inch
2 tbsp Butter softened
1 tsp Sugar

Instructions

Add the softened cream cheese, sugar and vanilla to a mixing bowl and beat together until smooth.
Dice strawberries and add them to the bowl, gently fold them in until combined.
Spread half of the strawberry cream cheese mixture on a tortilla.
Next, add 1 teaspoon of butter to a pan and heat to medium high. When the butter is melted, lay the tortilla in the pan, cream cheese side up.
Spread 1 additional tsp of butter on the second tortilla and lay on top of the cream cheese, butter side up.
Cook both sides for 2-3 minutes each or until crispy.
Mix together the cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle on top of the finished cheesecakeadilla.
Repeat for the second quesadilla (or use a griddle to make them at the same time).
Remove from heat and let sit for 2 minutes, then slice and serve with strawberry sauce.

Storage and Reheating Notes

IN THE FRIDGE: Since cheesecakeadillas contain dairy products, it's important to store them in the refrigerator. This will help maintain their quality and prevent spoilage. Place the container or bag in the refrigerator, where they should last for up to 3-4 days.

IN THE FREEZER: If you want to store your cheesecakeadillas for an extended period, consider freezing them. Make sure they are wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and place them in a freezer-safe container or a resealable plastic freezer bag. Label the bag or container with the date and contents, and store them in the freezer for up to 2-3 months. To enjoy, simply defrost in the refrigerator and serve chilled.
