Strawberry Nachos
Decadent Strawberry Nachos
A truly decadent dessert treat as seen on Crook & Chase! A great way to cool the palate after a meal of fabulous fiery food!
3 cups sliced fresh strawberries
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup almond flavored liqueur (such as Amaretto)*
3/4 cup fat-free sour cream
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
6 6" flour tortillas
2 tbsp. melted butter
2 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
2 tbsp. sliced almonds, toasted
1 tbsp. shaved semisweet chocolate
Combine strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar and almond-flavored liqueur in a bowl; stir well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to blend.
Combine sour cream, 2 tbsp. sugar and 1/4 tsp. cinnamon in a small bowl; stir well. Cover and refrigerate.
Preheat oven to 400F. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush 1 side of the tortillas with melted butter. Cut each tortilla into 6 wedges and arrange on 2 ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle tortilla wedges evenly with 2 tsp. sugar and 1/4 tsp. cinnamon. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes, or until crisp. Remove from oven and cool.
Drain strawberries and reserve liquid for another use (like sipping while you prepare this dessert!).
Place 6 tortilla wedges on each of 6 dessert plates. Top each tortilla wedge with strawberries and a dollop of sour cream mixture. Sprinkle toasted almonds and shaved chocolate evenly among nachos.
*If you prefer not to use almond flavored liqueur, you may substitute 1 tsp. of almond extract.
