Very much reminded me of a nice dessert at one of the Mexican restaurant here..I did pan fry these and used Hersheys Milk chocolate. Both are great, yet these were cheaper to make. Don't go out much now due to the economy. Great dessert that we enjoyed. Made for PRMR tag..

In my book this is A REALLY GREAT, VERY UNUSUAL RECIPE! Made it as written, but the next time I make these (& I wll!), I'll take a tip from MrsMM & pan fry them (I'm just not usually big on deep frying)! And, I might just get a little more adventureous about the candy bar I use! Thanks for a great treat! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Please Review My Recipe]

This is good- I modified it a bit, but I still would call this a 4-star. First- I ate it plain, no ice cream, although, duh, ice cream makes everything better. :) Also, I didn't submerge to fry. Instead, I pan fried with a bit of butter spray, and cinnamon. It got all lovely warm and melty. Additionally, I used a whole wheat/flax tortilla- as that's what we always have in our house. This way, I ended up with a chocolatey warm and melty dessert without much guilt.

These were very cool - unique, easy, yummy! I didn't want too big of a dessert, so I used the smaller fajita-sized tortilla and a snack-sized chocolate bar. I did have to hold it down a bit while it fried because the tortilla wanted to puff up! I served with a little vanilla ice cream and dusted the whole thing with a little cinnamon-sugar. It was really good - an easy "special treat"!!
