midnight snack...

Being within days of moving out of our apartment in Pomona, we have little food in our fridge. In fact, we have so little food, it's hard to put together a meal. We are surviving on tortillas and celery, ice cream and frozen peas. I personally am looking forward to the full fridge that awaits me at my parent's house. However, with the lack of supplies, rations, or choices, there comes an element of creativity. This may even be the last of my "college cooking" so I am embracing the time and coming up with some simple yet delectable entrees.

Tonight, I wandered into the kitchen, squandering for something to eat. My three o'clock burrito finally burned off. And as I ate what I threw together, I thought, "I probably should let this digest a little, or perhaps even exercise, before I go to bed." It was that delicious!!! Here I am, its nearly 2AM and I have to tell you about it!

I had some raw tortillas I wanted to use. I thought about just making one and putting butter and cinnamon sugar on it... but that wasn't enough.

Here's what you need:
1 Tortilla
some butter
1/4 cup chocolate, melted
1 Tbsp cinnamon sugar
1 cup ice cream of choice (something with chocolate preferred)

Warm the tortilla in a pan. When golden brown on both sides, butter one side and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar. Put butter/sugar side down in pan and let it crisp up. While waiting, melt chocolate. Take the tortilla, put it butter/sugar side down on a plate. Spread melted chocolate on other side of tortilla. Scoop ice cream onto the chocolate side. Roll like a burrito. The buttery/sugary side will be on the outside and give a nice crunch to the delicious chocolatey goodness on the inside. The ice cream will harden the chocolate, but the warmth of the tortilla will melt the ice cream. It's a great and flavorful treat... even after midnight... I mean, especially after midnight!

I hope you all try this. Its soooo good. I think I'll be enjoying them until the ice cream is gone :)
