Notes
Use room temperature cream cheese. This ensures a smooth and creamy mixture without lumps of cream cheese.
Roll your tortillas tightly so they won’t fall open when you pick them up.
Wrap the rolled tortillas in plastic wrap to help the rolled tortillas hold their shape.
Chill the roll ups for a few hours before slicing so the cream cheese can firm up again and make it easier to slice pinwheels into a nice round shape.
Slice with a serrated knife to keep from flattening the tortilla rolls while you cut them.
