• 6 tablespoons powdered sugar (divided per prep instructions)
• 3 tablespoons strawberry preserves (dark & thick as possible)
• 3 tablespoons blueberry preserves (dark & thick as possible)
• 1 banana (divided per prep instructions)

1. Mix the 3 3-oz pkgs of cream cheese w/3 tbsp powdered sugar till well-combined & smooth.
2. Divide mixture into 3 equal portions in separate bowls.
3. Add 3 tbsp strawberry preserves to the 1st bowl & mix well.
4. Add 3 tbsp blueberry preserves to the 2nd bowl & mix well.
5. Cut 1/3 of the banana into sml pieces, add to the 3rd bowl & mash into cream cheese mixture till fully incorporated & smooth.
6. Eyeball the strawberry & blueberry mixtures for desired color.
7. If a darker color is desired, add food coloring 1 drop at a time till youre happy w/the color.
8. Set all 3 bowls aside.
9. In a somewhat larger bowl, mix the 8-oz pkg of cream cheese w/3 tbsp powdered sugar till well-combined & smooth.
10. Cut the remaining 2/3 of the banana in sml pieces, add & mash into cream cheese mixture till fully incorporated & smooth.
11. Set this bowl aside for use toward the end.
12. Assembly: Put 1 tortilla on your work surface & spread the strawberry & cream cheese mixture over the tortilla.
13. Place a 2nd tortilla on top of the 1st & spread the sml banana & cream cheese mixture over the tortilla.
14. Place a 3rd tortilla on top of the 2nd & spread the blueberry mixture over the tortilla.
15. Put the last tortilla on top, cover w/plastic wrap & refrigerate for at least 1 hours.
16. Remove from refrigerator.
17. Using the contents of the larger bowl mixture of cream cheese, sugar & banana, now frost the tortilla stack as you would a cake (top & sides).
18. Cover w/plastic wrap & refrigerate for at least 1 hr or put in your freezer for at least 30 minute This will firm up the cream cheese & better allow for easy slicing.
19. Remove from refrigerator or freezer.
20. Using a very sharp knife, carefully cut into 8 wedges as you would a pie, but leave the wedges in place.
21. Garnish the top portion of the cut wedges w/fresh strawberry segments & fresh blueberries as desired &/or sprinkle with 1/4 cup crushed red & blue M&Ms to please the kids.
22. Cover & refrigerate till ready to serve surrounded by additional fresh fruit & a dish of cool whip on the side -- maybe even more of the M&M's.
23. NOTE: Makes a 3-layer cake w/top to frost & garnish w/fresh fruit, but the layers are tortillas.
24. You can add fruit to the layers (if adventurous) or repeat the layering process to 6 layers w/top.
25. I've always felt the smaller serving w/fresh fruit was the best option.
