Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Candied jalapenos
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 6 medium-sized Flour tortillas
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, finely chopped)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and honey until smooth and creamy. Use a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula for even mixing.
Step 2
Finely chop the candied jalapenos into smaller pieces for easier spreading, then fold them into the cream cheese mixture. Stir thoroughly to distribute the jalapenos evenly.
Step 3
If using green onions, add them to the mixture along with the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 4
Lay one flour tortilla on a clean work surface. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly across the tortilla, reaching the edges.
Step 5
Tightly roll up the tortilla into a log shape. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and cream cheese mixture.
Step 6
Once all tortillas are rolled, wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Step 7
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap and use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 3/4-inch thick pinwheels.
Step 8
Arrange the rollups on a serving platter and optionally garnish with extra candied jalapeno slices or chopped green onions for presentation.
