Notes

Softening cream cheese is crucial for easy mixing and smooth consistency. Don't overfill tortillas to prevent sogginess. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter for clean, even slices. Ensure oven is properly preheated. Can add chopped jalapenos for spice or sun-dried tomatoes for Mediterranean flair. Serve with salsa, guacamole, or sour cream dip.
