- Powdered Sugar: This sweetener dissolves easily into the cream cheese mixture, giving it that lovely sweetness without graininess.
- Vanilla Extract: A splash of good-quality vanilla adds warmth and depth to your cheesecake flavor.
- Assorted Fresh Fruits: Choose colorful fruits like strawberries, blueberries, and kiwi for freshness and visual appeal.
- Whipped Cream (optional): For an extra layer of indulgence, top the roll-ups with whipped cream before serving.

Let’s Make It Together
Prepare Your Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. The mixture should be creamy and fluffy.
Gather Your Fruits: Wash and chop your assorted fruits into bite-sized pieces. Keep them colorful for visual appeal; think red strawberries next to blue blueberries!
Assemble Your Roll-Ups: Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla. Leave about an inch from the edge for easy rolling.
Add Your Fruits: Sprinkle your chopped fruits generously over the cream cheese layer. Feel free to pile them high—more fruit equals more fun!
Roll Them Up Tight!: Starting from one edge, carefully roll up each tortilla tightly to prevent any spillage. Slice them into bite-sized pieces for easy serving.
Chill Before Serving (optional): For best results, let your roll-ups chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. This helps them hold their shape better.
