not bad, but totally didn't work out for me. i rolled the filling in the shell (but added more, because 2 Tbsp. wouldn't fill the tortilla), when i broiled them, all the filling spilled out all over the cookie sheet. i like the idea, but i'd have to play with it a lot to make it work out right

I love the concept here and would definitely play with it some as the possibilities are endless. The ricotta and cinnamon filling was superb and would make a tasty treat in it's own right. That said, it felt as though the balance in the amount of filling to tortilla was out of balance with lots of shell and little on the inside, even when I added a couple of thinly sliced strawberries to the center. Again the idea is great and I think adding more filling might be the trick. Made for the I recommend Tag Game.

Easy dessert to do when we want something quick. Next time I'll put less cinnamon. IT was too much. Made for ZWT 3
