Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 scoops Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each flour tortilla.
Place one tortilla, buttered side down, into the skillet.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over half of the tortilla.
Dust the chocolate chips with 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon for a warm flavor boost.
Fold the other half of the tortilla over the chocolate and cinnamon mixture, creating a half-moon shape.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the chocolate is melted. Press gently with a spatula to seal the edges.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas.
Dust each quesadilla with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and fresh berries, if desired.
