Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 Flour tortillas
- 6 Snickers bars (fun-size or full-size)
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
- Chocolate sauce (for drizzling, optional)
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving, optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Set aside.
Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of the tortilla.
Place one Snickers bar over the cream cheese layer.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly like a burrito, ensuring the Snickers bar is completely enclosed. Secure with a toothpick if needed. Repeat for all tortillas.
In a large, deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the rolled chimichangas seam-side down into the oil, a few at a time, without overcrowding the pan.
Fry each chimichanga for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a shallow dish, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together.
While the chimichangas are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated.
Serve warm, drizzled with chocolate sauce and topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired. Enjoy immediately!
