Place one flour tortilla on a clean surface and sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over half of the tortilla.
Fold the tortilla in half to create a semicircle, pressing gently to seal.
In a small bowl, combine the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar to make a cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until melted.
Place the folded tortilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the chocolate begins to melt.
Flip the tortilla carefully using a spatula, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the second side is golden brown.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and sprinkle the top with the cinnamon-sugar mixture while it is still warm.
Allow the quesadilla to cool for 1-2 minutes, then cut into wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
To serve, dust with powdered sugar, and add a dollop of whipped cream and sliced strawberries on the side for garnish.
