Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Butter each side of the tortillas, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and cut into even quarters, making 12 pieces. Place 2 pieces in 6 cups of a muffin tin and push down so that they create a cup shape. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until crisp. Remove the cups from the oven and allow to cool in the tin.
  3. In a large bowl, beat together heavy cream, vanilla, and sugar with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Assemble the cups by placing a spoonful of whipped cream in each toasted cup. Top the whipped cream with fresh fruit of your choice.
  5. Enjoy!
