Ingredients
 

Directions

  • Stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • In a small mixing bowl, blend together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • On each tortilla, spread about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture down the middle of the tortilla. Allow about a 1/4-inch gap around the edges.
  • Place cherry pie filling on top of the cream cheese. (I place about 4 cherries in a line down the center of the tortilla.)
  • Fold in the sides of the tortillas then roll up.
  • Heat about 1/2-inch of vegetable oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-low heat, When the oil is hot, place three chimichangas into the oil seam side down.
  • Cook for 1-2 minutes until golden brown on one side then use tongs or two forks to turn the chimichangas over and brown the other side.
  • When all sides are golden brown, remove to a paper towel to drain for a moment then immediately dip into the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating each one well.

Notes

To bake these chimichangas, place the rolled tortillas in a greased baking dish, brush with melted butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake in a 375-degree F preheated oven for 15-20 minutes.
