It's weird how you can fry cheesecake without it melting, bu apparently you can! These are just bursting with flavor and so scrumptious!
24 oz. Cream Cheese ⅔ c. sugar 2 tsp. vanilla extract 3½ c. vegetable oil 1 stick butter, melted 15-20 small flour tortillas ½ c. sugar 1 tsp. cinnamon SAUCE 1 lb. strawberries, diced ¼ c. sugar ⅛ c. vodka (berry flavored if you have it) ⅛ c. water ⅛ c. strawberry preserves For the sauce: In a medium sauce pan, add the strawberries, sugar, vodka, water, and place on low to medium heat and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Using a potato smasher, smash the strawberries while in the sauce pan. Add the strawberry preserves and allow to simmer for another 5-7 minutes or until sauce thickens. Remove from heat. In a large bowl, cream the cream cheese, add the sugar, and vanilla extract. Take a flour tortilla and add about a spoonful and a half of the cream cheese mixture and spread in the middle of the tortilla. Begin to roll the tortilla away from you; half way through tuck in the sides; and roll to the end of the other side of the tortilla making a roll. Complete the process until all of the cream cheese mixture is gone. In a large saute pan on medium heat (make sure it isn't too high) heat the vegetable oil. Add a couple of the cheesecake filled tortillas to the pan seam side up. Allow to fry for 1 minute on each side. Use a slotted spoon to remove from heat once golden brown on both sides. Repeat until all tortillas are cooked. Use a pastry brush and brush each tortilla with butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture, and allow to cool before serving. Use the strawberry sauce for dipping.
