Back in the old days, and by old days, I mean C the MP was in middle school. You could buy these tortillas filled with pie filling. C loved them We typically bought cherry or apple. I’ve not seen them in years, but how tough can it be to make them.
I found a couple of recipes and decided to give them a go. Easy? Holy guacamole, they were easy.
8 8 inch flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
1 20 ounce can pie filling
2 cups water
1/4 cup butter
It also called for a teaspoon of cinnamon, but I didn’t want to go there
Fill tortillas with equal amounts of pie filling and place folded side down in a greased 9 x 13 inch pan.
Bring 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water and the butter to a boil and pour over the tortillas.
Sprinkle the top with 1/2 cups sugar.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Let stand before serving to allow the filling to thicken.

This wasn’t my favorite recipe yet, so I’m going to keep working on it. I’ll probably cut the tortilla in half so it won’t be quite so doughy.
I might even try them with wonton wrappers.
G thought the second 1/2 cup of sugar was too much, but you know how I feel about my sugar.
and remember: Run faster, eat better, sleep longer, try harder, aim higher, love more and day by day get happier. Big kiss, Lynn
