Directions

- Make the Cheese Sauce: In a pan, mix butter, cream cheese, and heavy whipping cream over low heat until creamy. Stir in shredded cheddar until melted. Set aside.
- Cook the Beef: In the same pan, add olive oil and ground beef. Brown the meat, breaking it up as you go. Stir in taco seasoning until coated.
- Crisp the Tortillas: Heat a separate pan to toast each tortilla for about 30 seconds per side, just enough to make them flexible and crispy.
- Assemble the Crunchwrap: Lay one tortilla flat. Spread cheese sauce, then add ground beef, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, extra cheddar, cilantro, and optional jalapeño slices. Fold in the edges to create a snug wrap.
- Cook the Crunchwrap: In the pan, cook the crunchwrap seam-side down for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Cut in half and enjoy the gooey, cheesy inside!
