ingredients
4 (6-inch size) flour tortillas
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
vegetable oil for deep-frying
directions
Fill a medium saucepan or deep-fryer 1/3 full of vegetable oil and heat to 365 degrees F.
Warm tortillas in a tortilla warmer, or wrap in foil and bake at 350F for 3 to 4 minutes (this will make them easier to roll without cracking).
Place tortillas on a cutting board or flat surface and spoon 1/4 cup of the chocolate morsels into the middle of the tortilla.
Fold 1/3 of the sides of the tortilla into the center. Bring the bottom edge of the tortilla over the filling, roll to enclose the filling, and secure with toothpicks.
Carefully lower one into the oil and deep-fry for 2 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Repeat with remaining tortillas and chocolate. To serve, cut the chimichangas in half diagonally, and arrange on a plate. Dust with powdered sugar to serve.
cook's notes
You can use a chocolate candy bar, broken into pieces for the filling, if desired.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Changed up the fillings in these bad boys. Made some with reeses peanut butter cups chopped up, used milkways (cut up) in the others. DAY-YUM they were good. Going to peruse the candy aisle and see what other fillings we can try. Next time: dark chocolate and bacon bits.
