Time 55m

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 11

cooking spray
1 cup white sugar
1 ½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
10 large flour tortillas, cut into quarters
¼ cup melted butter, or as needed
1 cup milk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 (3 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup, or as needed
40 maraschino cherries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 40 muffin cups with cooking spray.
  • Combine sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
  • Brush both sides of flour tortilla pieces with melted butter; sprinkle each with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Gently fit each tortilla piece into a prepared muffin cup, shaping the tortilla to make a shell.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tortilla shells are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Beat milk, cream cheese, and pudding mix in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth; fold in whipped topping. Fill each tortilla shell with about 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture. Drizzle with chocolate syrup and top each with a maraschino cherry.

I used whole wheat tortillas for this recipe and they worked great. The tortillas were still crispy and the filling was just as delicious.

I added a little bit of vanilla extract to the filling and it really enhanced the flavor. I would highly recommend trying this recipe with vanilla extract.

I followed the recipe exactly and my tortillas came out perfect. They were crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The cinnamon sugar filling was also delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was a bit too sweet for me, but my kids loved it. They said it was like eating a giant cinnamon roll. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling if you don't like your desserts too sweet.
