Description

These Chocolate-Cinnamon Dessert Nachos are a fun, shareable twist on a classic comfort food. Crispy flour tortilla wedges, baked until golden and coated in sweet cinnamon sugar, serve as the perfect base for a dual-sauce topping. A luscious, slightly bitter unsweetened chocolate sauce pairs beautifully with a smooth, vanilla-infused caramel cream sauce. The combination of crunchy chips and rich, warm drizzles creates an irresistible textural contrast. Ideal for movie nights, potlucks, or a sweet weekend treat, this dessert is easy to assemble and always a crowd-pleaser. Customize with nuts, berries, or whipped cream for extra indulgence.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC).
  2. In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and the cinnamon.
  3. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a microwave or small saucepan.
  4. Brush the melted butter generously on both sides of each flour tortilla.
  5. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over one side of each tortilla.
  6. Stack the tortillas on top of one another, ensuring the sugared sides are facing up.
  7. Cut the stack into 10 to 12 even wedges.
  8. Arrange the tortilla wedges in a single layer, sugared side up, on a baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the wedges are crisp and golden brown.
  10. While the chips bake, combine the heavy cream, remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and packed brown sugar in a medium saucepan.
  11. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently until it comes to a boil.
  12. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce slightly thickens.
  13. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  14. Transfer half of the warm cream mixture into a separate bowl.
  15. Add the unsweetened chocolate to one bowl and stir until completely melted and smooth.
  16. Stir the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter into the other bowl of cream mixture to create a caramel sauce.
  17. Allow both sauces to cool until they are lukewarm and slightly thicker.
  18. Scatter the baked tortilla wedges in a single layer over a large serving platter.
  19. Drizzle the chocolate and caramel sauces generously over the chips.
  20. Top with chopped pecans or other desired toppings if using.
  21. Serve immediately while the chips are still crisp.
