Chocolate Tortilla Torte

"Since this is my first recipe to post I wanted to share one of our favorite treats. No one believes it's made with tortillas! Prep time does not include minimum 6 hours or overnight refrigeration! I cut it into 8 pieces. A coworker gave me the recipe years ago, and we've enjoyed it often. Hope you do too."

directions

  • Melt chocolate chips in microwave until melted (stir every 30 seconds).
  • Cool chocolate slightly (about 5-10 minutes); it should be smooth.
  • Mix in sour cream.
  • Mixture should be the consistency of thick pudding.
  • Spread first tortilla with layer of chocolate mix.
  • Be sure to go to edges.
  • Repeat until all tortillas are used.
  • There should be enough chocolate mix to liberally cover the top.
  • (If I've made the chocolate layers thinner, I frost the whole thing).
  • Decorate with strawberries or raspberries.
  • Important: Refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.

  1. This was a quick and easy dessert but I think it next time I'll make twice the amount of topping for between the layers. I used blackberries for garnish.
     
  2. Made this for Easter. Everyone was impressed how I got the layers so thin!! Ha! I put strawberry ice cream topping over the chocolate as that's all I had. Very rich. A small piece is pleny. Thanks for the neat recipe!

I volunteer at the thrift store in our town, which benefits the nursing home. I am slowly getting back into painting and sculpture after many years as a graphic artist. I have a great husband/best friend and we have 3 wonderful grown kids, and Duchess, a golden retriever/chow/bundle of love. We have a big garden this year, so that's keeping us busy too.
