My mini fried quesadillas will take your taco night to a whole new level! The delicious fried quesadilla, dipped into my absolutely amazing cream: can you say game-changer. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! These are absolutely adorable and very kid friendly. They make a great appetizer for family gatherings or game days as well. You can top them off with some jalapeños to make them spicier and I always suggest a squeeze of lime juice or fresh cilantro.

• Once ready to cook, fold tortilla in half and lightly press down. (If cooking the tortillas in batches, do not fold tortilas over until ready to cook as they will break)
• Heat air fryer up to 300 degrees. Place folded tortillas in the air fryer then spray them with cooking spray. Cook for 2 minutes
