Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Crisp Snowflakes!

Today we made cinnamon sugar snowflake tortilla crisps. It's the perfect thing to make with leftover tortillas!

- Adjust your oven rack to the center of the oven.. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Melt 3 or 4 tbsp. butter in a small bowl. In another bowl mix 1/2 cup sugar, 2 or 3 teaspoons .
Combine the sugar and cinnamon, stirring until well blended.

- To make snowflakes, fold the tortilla in half, and then in half again.

- Cut as you would a paper snowflake, cutting out shapes, but keeping parts of the seams intact. Carefully, open tortillas back up.

- Or, for simple wedges instead of snowflakes, cut a stack of 6 or 8 flour or corn tortillas into wedges, as you would a pizza, using a pizza cutter, or kitchen shears.  

- Lay the tortillas out on a cookie sheet, arranging them so they don't touch. Brush one side of the tortillas with melted butter. Sprinkle the chips with the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Flip them over and brush the other side with melted butter and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar.

- Bake the chips for approximately 6 to 8 minutes, shaking the pan gently after about 4 minutes to prevent sticking. Watch the chips carefully to avoid burning; the chips will turn a light, golden brown when finished.

Serve warm or cool.
