AUTHENTIC MEXICAN TORTILLAS

Steps:

• Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Either by hand or with a pastry cutter, cut in the shortening till the mixture is crumbly. If the mixture looks more floury than crumbly, be sure to add just one or two more tablespoons of shortening till it is crumbly. Add about 3/4 cup hot water to the mixture, or just enough to make the ingredients look moist.
• With your hand or a large fork, knead the mixture making sure to rub the dough against the sides of the large mixing bowl to gather any clinging dough. If the dough still sticks to the side of the bowl, add a couple more tablespoons of flour until the dough forms a soft round shape. The dough is ready to roll out now, but it is best to let it rest. Cover it with a dish towel, and let it sit for about an hour or so.
• Take the dough, and pull it apart into 10 to 12 balls. Lightly flour your rolling area, and roll each ball with a rolling pin to about 1/8 inch thickness.
• Place each tortilla on a medium hot cast iron skillet. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla does not look doughy.

CINNAMON APPLE BURRITO

Steps:

• Peel, core, and quarter the apples. Then cut the quarters crosswise into thin slices and combine them with the orange and lemon juices in a medium-size saucepan. With the pan partially covered, bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce the heat slightly and cook the fruit at a gentle boil for 5 minutes.
• Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves and continue cooking the filling uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Blend the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and pour it into the apple mixture. Bring the mixture back to a boil, stirring continuously. Let the filling cook for 1 minute and then remove it from the heat and stir in the nuts. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to cool.
• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a medium-size baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly greased aluminum foil.
• Working with 1 tortilla at a time, spoon a quarter of the apple filling down the center, leaving a generous 1-inch border at each end. Fold the ends over the filling, then fold over one of the sides to enclose the filling. Moisten the other edge of the tortilla with a pastry brush dipped in water, then continue to fold the tortilla so it rests on the moistened section. Place it on the baking sheet, seam down. Repeat for the other tortillas.
• Brush each tortilla generously with melted butter, then sprinkle on sugar. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tortillas turn a rich golden brown. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and let the burritos cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Cut each one diagonally into halves to serve.

MEXICAN HOT APPLE PIE

Steps:

• 1. TORTILLA CHIPS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush each individual tortilla generously with butter. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar, and cut into 8th's. Place on a cookie sheet and bake in oven until light brown (they brown quickly, keep an eye on them!), usually around 8-10 minutes. You can add a bit more butter and cinnamon sugar once they come out of the oven.
• 2. TOPPING: Place chips on the bottom of an individual serving plate. Spoon apple pie filling over top of the chips. Sprinkle Red Hot candy powder over top of the pie filling (to taste), sprinkle with cheddar cheese, and place in microwave on medium power, until the cheese is melted. You can choose to add whipped cream after it's finished cooking in the micro. SERVE HOT!
• 3. NOTE: I eat these quite a bit for dessert, and because they're so easy to make, I keep more ingrediants on hand that what I'll use for a night's servings. I bake extra chips, and store them in an airtight container for future use. When I crush my red hots, I use 3-4 bags worth, and put what I'm not using immediately into a ziplock baggy or airtight container for future use. And of course, I'm always stocked up on apple pie filling now, so making these becomes a 3 minute dessert, including prep!!! My personal tastes are to add extra cheese (I love apples and cheddar cheese together!!!), a little extra red hot dust for extra flavor, and opt out of using whipped cream (not a fan of the stuff to begin with.).
