Ingredients
- 4 scoops Vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Chipotle chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 medium-sized Flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Whipped cream
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon

Instructions
1. Start by preparing the cinnamon sugar tortilla chips. Cut the flour tortillas into small triangles (around 8 pieces per tortilla).
2. Mix 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 0.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon in a bowl and set aside.
3. Heat 0.5 cups of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the tortilla triangles in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.
4. Remove the fried tortillas and drain on paper towels. While still warm, sprinkle them generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Set aside to cool.
5. Now, prepare the Mexican hot fudge sauce. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of dark chocolate chips, 1 cup of heavy cream, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder, and 0.25 teaspoons of chipotle chili powder.
6. Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously, until the chocolate is melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat and stir in 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
7. Assemble the sundaes by placing 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream in each serving bowl.
8. Generously drizzle the warm Mexican hot fudge sauce over the ice cream.
9. Add a dollop of whipped cream on top and garnish with a few cinnamon sugar tortilla chips.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy your indulgent Mexican Hot Fudge Sundae!
