Ingredients

For the Cinnamon Sugar Chips:
6 small flour tortillas (cut into triangles)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
For the Cheesecake Dip:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
For the Strawberry Topping:
1 cup fresh or canned strawberry pie filling
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Make the Cinnamon Sugar Chips:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Brush the tortilla triangles with melted butter and sprinkle generously with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon.
Place on the baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Allow to cool completely; chips will crisp up as they cool.
2. Prepare the Cheesecake Dip:
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.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until combined and fluffy.
3. Assemble the Box:
Place the cinnamon sugar chips into one section of your box or serving platter.
Spoon the cheesecake dip into a small bowl or section of the box.
Add the strawberry pie filling into a separate section or bowl.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
Dip the crispy cinnamon sugar chips into the creamy cheesecake dip and sweet strawberry topping for the ultimate dessert experience!

Notes

Make-Ahead Friendly: Bake the chips and prep the cheesecake dip ahead of time. Assemble just before serving to keep chips crisp.
Tortilla Tip: For best results, use thin flour tortillas for a crispier chip. Air-frying the chips is also a great alternative to baking.
Cheesecake Dip Variation: Add a squeeze of lemon juice for a tangier dip or swap the vanilla with almond extract for a nutty twist.
Topping Options: Substitute strawberry filling with cherry, blueberry, or raspberry pie filling for a different flavor profile.
Serving Style: This works beautifully in a sectioned snack box or on a large platter for dipping and sharing.
Extra Indulgence: Drizzle with chocolate syrup, white chocolate, or caramel for added flair and flavor.
