When my mom made pies she always gave me the pie crust trimmings and we made cinnamon/sugar diamonds. Thatâs the shape we cut the pie crust scraps in. Something about that crispy texture with the cinnamon sugar was just perfect.
Thatâs how I do it with the tortillas on occasion. As you can tell from my repertoire I am not an expert on pie crusts. Iâve never developed a talent for the crust. I use a cookie cutter and cut them into shapes. Sometimes I spray the cutouts with a little Pam and other times with butter.
It has rained here for 4 days. That is a looooooong time in El Paso, TX. Iâm about tired of it. That led to baking The Contessaâs Chocolate Chip Cookies and making these Spicy Apple Tortilla Stacks. I had to add a little zip to the apple mix. I used Chipotle Chile Powder from Savory Spice Shop. I didnât use a lot. I canât tell you I used exactly the amount in the recipe because the granddaughters did the measuring with my supervision. The chipotle taste is a gentle hint of spice.
These are fun and easy to make.

My daughter started my foodblog, Recipes and Ramblins with the Tumbleweed Contessa, as a place for us to record our family recipes and share them with everyone. Old fashioned southwest cuisine is my favorite but I like to try new things too.
