Ingredients
  

6 large flour tortillas (burrito size)

1 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/4 cup powdered sugar, plus extra for dusting

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/2 cup granola (optional, for added crunch)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or spatula, blend the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.

    Prep the Strawberries: In a separate bowl, place the sliced strawberries and drizzle them with the lemon juice. If desired, sprinkle a tablespoon of powdered sugar over the strawberries to enhance their sweetness and help prevent browning. Gently toss to coat the strawberries evenly, and allow them to marinate for about 5 minutes.

      Assemble the Roll-Ups: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean, dry surface. Using a spatula, spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire tortilla, being sure to leave about a 1-inch border around the edges for easier rolling.

        Add Strawberries and Granola: At one edge of the tortilla, sprinkle a small amount of granola (if using) for added crunch. Then distribute a layer of the marinated strawberries evenly over the cream cheese, making sure to avoid overfilling.

          Roll It Up: Starting from the edge with the strawberries, carefully roll the tortilla away from you, keeping it tight and tucking in the edges as you go. Once completely rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the roll-up into bite-sized pieces, about 1 to 2 inches thick. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas.

            Serve: Arrange the completed roll-ups on a serving platter. For an extra touch, dust with additional powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a vibrant pop of color.

              Chill Option: These delicious roll-ups can be enjoyed right away or, for a refreshing treat, covered and chilled in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving.
