1. Make the Cream Cheese Sauce
In a small saucepan, melt the cream cheese with the milk over medium-low heat. Stir until smooth. Add shredded cheese and mustard, stir until fully melted and creamy. Season to taste and set aside.
2. Cook the Beef
In a skillet, cook the ground beef with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in chopped bacon and mix well.
3. Prepare the Bacon Torte
On a small skillet or muffin pan:
- Lay bacon slices in a circular shape, overlapping to form a “bacon shell.”
- Spoon mashed potatoes (or cheese mixture) into the center.
- Fold the bacon over and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, until crispy and set.
- Let cool slightly before removing.
4. Assemble the Burrito
- Warm your tortilla slightly for easier folding.
- Add a layer of lettuce (optional), beef and bacon mix, cheddar cheese, pickles, onions, and a generous drizzle of cream cheese sauce.
- Carefully place your bacon torte in the center.
- Fold the tortilla burrito-style, tucking in the sides and rolling tightly.
5. Grill It (Optional but Recommended)
Place the burrito seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side, until crispy and golden brown.
6. Serve with Extra Sauce
Slice in half (or not—go full beast mode), drizzle more cream cheese sauce on top, and serve with fries, coleslaw, or even more bacon if you dare.
💡 Pro Tips
- Too big to roll? Use a large flatbread or wrap it in foil for extra support.
- Spice it up: Add jalapeños, sriracha, or hot sauce to the beef or cheese sauce.
- Add crunch: Crushed tortilla chips or fried onions take this to another level.
