How to make edible tortilla dessert bowls


These are the simplest thing to make, super yummy , and give you a different way of presenting a dessert. You can make them savoury by omitting the sugar.

You need about a tablespoon of butter, and a couple of teaspoons of sugar per tortilla. These are rough measurements, I didn't measure exactly when I has making them, the method was a little rough and ready if I'm being honest.

Preheat the oven to 160 degrees. Melt the butter in the microwave. Brush both sides of the tortilla with the melted butter, then sprinkle the sugar over the top. I used granulated sugar for some (for the children) and cinnamon sugar for the adults. If your tortillas are not very soft it may be an idea to soften them slightly in the microwave first as you need them to bend without ripping.

Then shape the tortilla inside an oven proof bowl, or over the back of a ramekin, or other suitable bowl. Bake for about 8 minutes, but keep an eye on them as you don't want them to burn. Take them out of the oven and let them cool as they are for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Then they are ready to use.

 
 
 
The kids had their bowls filled with mint choc chip ice cream.....
 

And we had our cinnamon sugar ones with strawberries and cream. Yum :)
