Apple-Cinnamon Dessert Enchiladas
"These are SOOOOOOO delicious! I have also made these using peach pie filling in place of apple, it is just as good as the apple! I strongly suggest to double the complete recipe, I could eat pretty much this whole dish just myself, they are that good! you can use your own homemade apple pie filling for this in place of canned --- top these with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream :)"

5 stars all the way. We loved the caramel sauce and they were so simple to make. Thanks for posting this tasty recipe. -
This is an incredibly easy, inexpensive dish that tastes very good. Better the next day. So simple. Thanks for the great recipe. -
You are right Kittencal - this is sooooooo delicious! I made it for a Mexican carry-in at work today. It was to die for! One of my co-workers wanted to just eat the sauce. I made one substitution (not the butter of course). I used evaporated milk instead of the whipping cream and it was still extremely rich! The addition of cinnamon and raisins to this recipe make it over the top. It was easy to assemble and I tripled it and put it into a jellyroll pan for a large crowd. Thanks for something new! -
I made my own apple filling with unsweetened apple juice,I'm so glad I did because the sauce is very sweet. They were very good. I had friends over for dinner last night and they devoured every single one. I doubled the recipe and can't wait to try other fillings. I think I'm going to skip the water in the sauce and use all heavy cream. Might experiment with condensed milk instead of the white sugar too. Thank you for a wonderful recipe -
This was so easy and delicious! I used the small tortilla and it made 10 of them. I like the small because it is a rich dessert and it just makes for the perfect size. I followed directions exactly except for after they baked for 20 minutes I then turnedthe oven on a low broil for just a minute to bubble the caramel mixture that was on top of the enchilada and made it a pretty, crisp brown color. I also spooned the caramel mixture over the ice cream. Everyone loved it! I will definitely <br/>use this recipe a lot. I can't wait to try it with some cinnamon cream cheese mixture in with the <br/>apples. Yum! Thanks for a wonderful recipe.

OMG!!! These are totally to die for! Like another of the reviewers, I opted for 2% evaporated milk in place of the whipping cream but that was the only substitution. These were so, so easy to make and were completely delicious (I was eating the sauce like soup when the enchiladas were all gone.... yummmm). It took less than 10 minutes to assemble them and then I let them rest for 30 minutes while I made dinner (tacos!). Right before we sat down to eat I popped them into the oven and they were ready when we were done eating. If you like apple pie you will LOVE these delicious enchiladas. Edit: Okay... I have a confession... the sauce on this dessert was so dang good that I made some crepes last night, filled them with vanilla bean ice cream, then made the sauce from this recipe and drizzled it over the crepes ... finishing off with a few chopped pecans. Ding dang they were good. Thanks again for this yumilicious recipe! -
