Cream Cheese Roll-Ups

by

Instructions

 

  1. Soften the cream cheese
    If your cream cheese isn’t soft, pop it in the microwave on 50% power for about 1 minute. This helps it mix smoothly with the other ingredients.

  2. Mix the filling
    In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, salsa, shredded cheese, and diced green onions. If the mixture feels too soft, chill it in the fridge for up to 30 minutes to firm up.

  3. Assemble the roll-ups
    Spread a thin, even layer of the mixture over each tortilla. You don’t need much—just enough to cover the surface.

  4. Roll and repeat
    Roll up each tortilla tightly. You should be able to make about 8 roll-ups. If you’re getting fewer, you’re probably spreading the filling too thickly.

  5. Chill before slicing
    Refrigerate the rolled tortillas for at least 30 minutes. This makes them easier to cut cleanly.

  6. Slice and serve
    Slice each roll into 10 bite-sized pieces, plus 2 end pieces (which may not look as pretty but are just as tasty).

    📝 Pro Tip: Save the ends—friends love snacking on them after a night out!

  7. Store until serving
    Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. They can be made the night before, but ideally, they’re best served the same day for maximum freshness.
