However, I thought, why wouldn’t I try to do the same with dessert salad?! And it turned out so fun and delicious. Small pinwheels of tortilla and cheesecake filling stuffed with lot of fresh fruits taste really amazing.

Ingredients
½ cup unsalted butter-room temperature
1 ½ cup powdered sugar
6 oz. cream cheese-room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ¼ cup whipped cream (or ½ cup +2 Tbsp. chilled heavy cream+2.5 Tablespoon powdered sugar)
2/3 cup fresh blueberries
2/3 cup small diced fresh strawberries
3 small peaches-peeled and diced
2 kiwi- peeled and small diced
1/2 cup fresh raspberries-sliced in half
2 (1 oz.) boxes sugar free vanilla instant pudding
4–5 large tortillas-room temperature
2–3 Tablespoons unsalted butter-melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or to taste)
Instructions
To make the whipped cream beat chilled heavy cream until soft peaks form, then add 2.5 Tbsp. powdered sugar and beat until stiff peaks form, set aside.
In a large bowl cream together softened butter, cream cheese, vanilla and powdered sugar. Add whipped cream and mix to combine.
Gently fold in fruits. If the raspberries are too soft I suggest you set them aside and simply scatter them later when spread the filling over tortillas (or they will tint the salad).
Add vanilla instant pudding powder and stir in with a rubber spatula.
Chill the mixture in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
Spread the mixture over tortillas and scattered raspberries on top. Roll filled tortillas tightly.
Brush each tortilla with melted butter and roll in cinnamon sugar mixture. Cut in 2/3- ¾ inch thick slices and serve immediately.
