Ingredients
6 small flour tortillas, cut into triangles
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup fresh or canned strawberry pie filling
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
Fresh strawberry slices, optional
Melted chocolate or caramel, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Brush the tortilla triangles with melted butter.
- In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle generously over the tortilla pieces.
- Arrange the tortilla triangles on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes until golden and crisp. Let cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture to create a fluffy cheesecake dip.
- Stir the strawberry pie filling with the optional vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- Arrange the cinnamon sugar chips in a serving box or platter. Spoon the cheesecake dip into a small bowl or section and place the strawberry topping beside it.
- Top with optional fresh strawberry slices and drizzle with melted chocolate or caramel before serving.
Notes
Store tortilla chips separately in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to keep them crispy.
Refrigerate the cheesecake dip and strawberry topping in sealed containers for up to 3 days.
Swap the strawberry topping for blueberry, cherry, or raspberry pie filling for different flavors.
Add crushed graham crackers for a classic cheesecake-inspired topping.
Warm the tortilla chips briefly in the oven before serving again to refresh their crisp texture.
