Margie Monin Dombrowski’s grandmother made these buñuelos from scratch, but we found that good flour tortillas work great. Cut them into Christmas shapes for a quick festive snack that kids will love. Use the thickest tortillas you can find. They’re also great drizzled with chocolate syrup alongside ice cream.

Ingredients

½ cup vegetable oil
4 (10-inch) flour tortillas
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Chocolate syrup

Instructions

1. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in skillet over medium-low heat. Cut each tortilla into 8 pieces. Place in skillet; fry until light brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towel. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon while hot. Repeat with remaining tortillas, adding more oil for each batch as needed. Makes 32 buñuelos.
