Tortillas have many uses in my house: wraps, quesadillas, tacos, burritos, enchiladas and so much more.
Needless to say when I received this package last week from Mission Foods of their newest Super Soft Tortillas I was pretty darn happy.
Not only are they great for creating healthy, yummy meals they can also be used to make sweet snacks, like these Dulce Quesadillas.
When I crave sweets I like to have some sort of fruit mixed in to balance it out. When you take a bite of this quesadilla you get a bite of chocolate, peanut butter, banana and strawberry all at once.
Oops…I had to try them out..
If there is one thing that bothers me with tortillas it is when they are hard, don’t roll or fold easily, and end up cracking. Or how about when you are eating a wrap and everything just comes falling out because the tortilla is hard to manage? These new super soft tortillas are just what they say, super soft, easy to work with to create all of those things you love to use tortillas for.
Back to that Dulce Quesadilla you are craving…set your oven to 350 degrees, grab two Mission Super Soft tortillas and rub one side of each tortilla with olive oil.
Lay out your bottom tortilla (olive oil side on the cutting board) and set the top tortilla to the side.
Spread the peanut butter on the tortilla.
Slice the banana and lay the slices over the peanut butter.
Slice the strawberries and lay those over the banana.
Then sprinkle the chocolate chips over the strawberries.
Place the top tortilla on the quesadilla (olive oil side up).
Transfer the quesadilla onto a baking sheet with aluminum foil and sprinkle the top of the quesadilla with cinnamon and sugar. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes (flipping over at 7 minutes). Make sure the chocolate melted on the inside. Remove from the oven and wallah!
I am addicted to these easy, sweet snacks.
- 2 medium (Mission Super Soft) flour tortillas (spread olive oil on one side of each tortilla)
- ¼ cup of chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
- 1 banana, sliced
- 3-5 strawberries, sliced
- ¼ cup of peanut butter, smooth
- 2 teaspoons sugar (separated into 1 teaspoon portions)
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon (separated into 1 teaspoon portions)
- Preheat over to 350 degrees.
- Rub olive oil on one side of each tortilla. Place one tortilla on cutting board with olive oil side down.
- Spread peanut butter on the tortilla. Place banana slices on peanut butter, then strawberries on the bananas. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the fruit.
- Close the quesadilla with the other tortilla. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture over the quesadilla.
- Place in oven and bake for 7 minutes, flip the quesadilla, sprinkle with other half of cinnamon and sugar, and return to oven. Bake for an additional 8 more minutes (make sure the chocolate has melted and the quesadilla gets a little bit crisp).
- Remove from oven, let cool just a bit and cut into sections.
- Enjoy!
I think this would even be a great snack for your special someone on Valentine’s Day…a glass of wine, a little fruit, peanut butter & chocolate. I am going to venture to say that it doesn’t get much better than that.

I had tried nutella and quesadilla once but never the peanut butter combo! Great idea, thanks.

Oh nutella would be awesome too! Great idea.
Mmm, my mouth is watering! I love the flavor combo!
Thanks! The flavor combo is really tasty with these..almost like peanut butter and jelly but then you throw the banana & chocolate in there and it is even better.
Wow. I had no idea there would be so many good things inside of those tortillas. Peanut Butter, chocolate, strawberries, and bananas! Wow. I feel like these would go great with hot chocolate or coffee.
I know! The pictures are deceiving and the title probably doesn’t do it justice. Coffee with this quesadilla would be wonderful right about now.
This looks super yummy! I love quick and easy snacks/desserts that are packed full of fruit

Thanks! It is really easy to make and tastes great! Let me know if you try it out.
Anything with peanut butter + chocolate calls my name! I love that I could have this for breakfast and not feel ridiculously guilty about it
I’ll have to check out those new tortillas – I hate when mine fall apart too!

Peanut butter and chocolate really is one of the best combos out there! These tortillas are great–very soft and perfect for all kinds of meals! Have a great weekend.
What a fabulous idea for a quesadilla! sounds like an amazing dessert!
You would love it. I hope get to try it out–it is very easy to make!
These look SO good! I am envisioning one with strawberries and Nutella – yum!

Yes! A few people have mentioned nutella-what a great idea!
Could you do this on a George Foreman Grill? Seems like it would be easier so you don’t have to flip it.
That is a great idea! I bet you could. That would make it easier–sometimes using just a skillet makes the flipping part hard (to keep everything inside).
