- butter
Preheat the griddle to medium; spread a little butter over it.
Buttering the griddle and building
- 1 oz gloria candies
- 3 whole flour tortillas
- 1 oz shredded cheese
Lay down three five-inch flour tortillas; spread about an ounce of cheese on each, then an equal amount of chopped gloria candy over the top.
After a couple of minutes, peek underneath for browning; once the cheese is melted, fold each over into a half-moon.
Melting, folding and browning
Cook a couple of minutes longer, turning a couple of times, for the caramel to soften and mix with the cheese; do not let them get crispy and crack.
- sugar
Remove, cut in half into triangles, and sprinkle with a little sugar, which sticks to the buttery exterior.
