2. Assemble Chimichangas:
• Lay a tortilla flat and spoon about 1/4 cup of the cream cheese mixture in the center.
• Fold in the sides and roll up the tortilla like a burrito, securing with a toothpick if needed.
3. Fry the Chimichangas:
• Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
• Fry the chimichangas until they’re golden brown on all sides, then drain them on paper towels.
4. Coating:
• Mix sugar and cinnamon in a shallow dish.
• Roll the hot chimichangas in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until they’re nicely coated.
5. Serving:
• Serve the chimichangas warm, maybe with some extra strawberry jam or fresh strawberries on the side.
Tips:
• Ingredient Quality: Fresh, ripe strawberries will give you the best flavor.
• Frying vs. Baking: Frying gives that classic crispiness, but if you want to go a bit healthier, you can bake them until they’re golden.
• Customization: Feel free to mix things up! Try different fruits or use dairy-free options for the cream cheese and sour cream.
• Prep Time: About 20 minutes
• Cook Time: Around 10 minutes
• Total Time: Approximately 30 minutes
• Servings: Makes about 6 chimichangas.
