Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 10 large flour tortillas, cut into quarters
- ¼ cup melted butter, or as needed
- 1 cup milk
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 2 (3 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 40 muffin cups with cooking spray.
- Combine sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
- Brush both sides of flour tortilla pieces with melted butter; sprinkle each with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Gently fit each tortilla piece into a prepared muffin cup, shaping the tortilla to make a shell.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tortilla shells are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Beat milk, cream cheese, and pudding mix in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth; fold in whipped topping. Fill each tortilla shell with about 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture. Drizzle with chocolate syrup and top each with a maraschino cherry.
