Introduction: Chocolate Tortilla Ice Cream Enchilada

About: I'm a total gearhead. I love working on cars, airplanes, rockets, sailboats, whatever. Cars i've owned and/or rebuilt: 1966 Pontiac Grand Prix, 1977 Lotus Esprit, 1979 Fiat X1/9 & Strada, 1970 Ford Bronco, …

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!

Step 1: Ingredients

Chocolate Tortilla
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
dash of salt

Filling
ice cream (any flavor)

Garnish
chocolate syrup or sauce
fresh strawberries

Step 2: Mix Ingredients & Set Aside for 2 Hours

Combine ingredients and hand mix for about 5 minutes until texture is smooth.
Cover and store in refrigerator for about 2 hours.

Step 3: Making Tortillas

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Pour 1/4 cup mixture in center and tilt pan to spread batter into a circle.
Let cook for about 2 minutes then flip to cook other side for another 1-2 minutes.
Be careful not to burn or else the tortilla will be too stiff for folding.




Step 4: Add Ice Cream Filling

Add 3 to 4 heaping spoons of your favorite ice cream on top of the chocolate tortilla.
I used strawberry.

Step 5: Making the Enchilada

Fold both sides of the chocolate tortilla to wrap the ice cream filling.

Step 6: Final Touches

Drizzle with chocolate syrup and garnish with whole or cut strawberries.
