- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons apricot preserves

3. Next brush the tortillas with butter, then cut them into pie-like wedges.

4. Arrange the wedges on a greased baking sheet (all you need to use is a spray and spray lightly), sprinkle the tortilla wedges with cinnamon and sugar, and bake until golden brown for about 10 minutes. Check frequently to keep them from burning.

Let the chips cool before serving. this lovely recipe makes 4 to 6 servings. Enjoy!
