Filling and Tortilla
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and continue to mix until well combined. Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Finally, add the cinnamon and mix until smooth.

Fill the Tortillas
Take a flour tortilla and place about 1/4 of the cheesecake filling in the center. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly to enclose the filling completely. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking.
- 4
Fry the Xangos
Carefully place one or two filled tortillas into the hot oil, frying until golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
