Chocolate Tortilla Ice Cream Enchilada

Chocolate Tortilla Ice Cream Enchilada
Made this wonderful discovery at a small, hole in the wall cafe in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Of course the chef wouldn't reveal her secret, but I searched for chocolate tortilla recipes and have to admit this dessert is pretty close to hers!

Which restaurant did you go to in Albuquerque? I'm moving there soon :)
Mar 17, 2009. 9:38 PMMr. Squishy says:
Don't you need to fold up the bottom of the tortilla? Because the Ice cream will fall out if you don't.

Not on this type of dish, you are supposed use knives and forks. :)
Mar 6, 2010. 3:06 PMMr. Squishy says:
 Its a Tortilla, you eat it with you hands

have you ever had an enchilada? you'd make a big mess if you tried eating one with your hands.

i think you're thinking of a burro (burrito), but you can even eat those with a fork and knife if you want. there's no rules.

trust me, i live in tucson -- we practically live on mexican food here!  :o)

Its a enchilada. Not a taco or a burrito. learn your food.
Jun 21, 2011. 6:35 PMlkuziez9680 says:
dont know about you but it actually looks more like a crepe to me
Aug 29, 2011. 8:22 PMmr magic says:

Aug 6, 2011. 2:10 AMMegrathea69 says:
What about using white or milk chocolate for the tortilla and putting dark chocolate or fruit in sauce inside
Mar 4, 2009. 2:57 PMPKTraceur says:
Isnt this a chocolate crepe filled with icecream? Schweet! -PKT
Jan 3, 2011. 10:31 PMSenior Waffleman says:
crepes consist of mainly eggs, dont they? have kind of an eggy taste i believe
Aug 5, 2011. 9:36 PMMauigerbil says:
not really. crepes are mah fave breakfast food,so yah.....
Mar 4, 2009. 3:03 PMPKTraceur says:
Well, sorry for the recomment, however, since it is thicker, it may be considered a tortilla! Since it is thicker, could you set it like a taco, dip in chocolate, and freeze/refrigerate? Fill with icecream, and eat! -PKT

How many Enchilada's would this recipe make??? I have GOT to try this VERY soon!
Jul 8, 2010. 3:12 PMblufreak806 says:
I would have to say I can try making a cocoa tortilla but for a bit of a suggestion, I have found that many chocolate deserts especially here near the TX NM CO AZ area try a hint of cinnamon and or nutmeg to the tortilla recipe. It may be the hint of flavor that would make this just like the one in Albq, NM.
