Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 12 fajita-size flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Homemade Cinnamon Ice Cream, recipe follows

  • 1 (20-ounce) jar chocolate flavored syrup
  • 1 (10-ounce) jar maraschino cherries with stems

In a medium skillet, pour oil to a depth of 1/2-inch; heat oil over medium heat. Add tortillas, 1 at a time, and fry, about 1 minute per side until golden. (Press tortilla down with a fork if it starts to puff up while frying.) Drain on paper towels.

In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over hot tortillas. Set aside to cool. (Can be done 1 day ahead.)

Top cinnamon-sugar tortilla with 1 generous scoop of Homemade Cinnamon Ice Cream. Drizzle with chocolate syrup, and top with a cherry. Repeat procedure with remaining tortillas, ice cream, chocolate, and cherries.

Homemade Cinnamon Ice Cream:

1 quart half-and-half

2 cinnamon sticks

1 pint heavy whipping cream

2 (14-ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk

Up to 2 quarts milk, as needed

In a 2-quart saucepan, combine half-and-half and cinnamon sticks. Cook 20 minutes over low heat (do not boil). Remove from heat. Remove cinnamon sticks and chill for 4 hours.

With an electric mixer at high speed, beat whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add condensed milk and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Add chilled half-and-half.

Pour mixture into canister of a 4 to 6-quart ice cream freezer. Add milk, if needed, to fill canister to the freezer line. Freeze according to manufacturer's directions.

Yield: 4 to 6 quarts

    smooth & dreamy

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is very very easy. I skipped the step of infusing the cinnamon and jusy added 1 teasp of vanilla (no cooking), and it... was the best vanilla icecream. It almost tastes like the custard vanilla you have to cook, but without all the time. This is a great base recipe. It also makes alot.Read more

    Small modifications

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    The ice cream is sooo creamy!! I added some red food coloring to give a more cinniamon look. Also, instead of frying mine, i... baked mine and cut them to make chips in order to make it easier to eat. It is sooo delicious!!Read more
