We had to take our car into the shop the other day, which led us to be stranded at our house for two days with no transportation! We also happened to have eaten almost all of the food in our cupboards, and I was itching for something sweet.
This led to me to the Google Cookbook (I type in a few ingredients, followed by "recipe", and hit SEARCH). I managed to find this delectable and SUPER easy recipe for Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips!
Ingredients:
- a few tablespoons of melted butter in a small dish
- 4 regular sized flour tortillas
- cinnamon sugar (which is something I always keep in the house for toast. I just throw about 1/4 cup sugar into a bowl and sprinkle cinnamon in it, then mix it til it gets the "right color". I suggested dipping a finger in and tasting to make sure its not too cinnamon-y.)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush butter on one side of a tortilla. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top of the buttered side (as much or as little as you like. I usually end up covering the entire tortilla, then picking it up and shaking off the excess sugar back into my bowl). Take a pizza cutter and cut the tortilla into your desired shapes (I make some triangles and some squares, 'cause we're fancy). Place them with the sugared-side up, onto a NON-greased cookie sheet. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are starting to brown. We don't like our chips to be too crispy or burnt, so I usually take them out after 7 or 8 minutes (depending on how fast it takes me to react to the beeping oven timer). I immediately push them onto a plate with a spatula and let them sit for a minute or two before eating them (my Other Half, however, would rather burn his tongue).
You don't need to make anything to dip them in - they're delicious just on their own! However, I have found a recipe for a cookie-dough dip that would just be perfect with these little guys! Might have to try that out and let you know how it goes...
