Ultimate Chocolate Nachos

Good Morning Everyone :-)

You might be thinking Chocolate? Nachos? Together? Gross! Yeah so not the case in this sweet dessert :-) Who doesn't like a nice chocolate dessert? Last week I decided to come up with the "Ultimate Chocolate Nachos". I asked J if he would like to help me make this recipe up and he jumped at the chance. We are always looking for things to do together, and well we love cooking. So last night about 10 PM We started making the Ultimate Chocolate Nachos. It was fun, tasted amazing and beautiful...or at least I think so.
Just a note: We tried to use Grated orange peel on top to give it a pop but couldn't figure out a way for it to look good. So if you make this and try it with orange peel...Let me know :-)

Ingredients
5 Tortillas ( you can add more depending on who you are feeding)
Oil( You can use a deep fryer or just a pan with oil)

Directions:
Heat up the pan and make sure it is hot....you do not want them to just float... Once the oil is hot then flip them over. You want them to be golden brown. Take a plate and line it with paper towels. Just enough to where it soaks up the grease.Then you want to make a sugar mixture for the top. 

Cinnamon Sugar:
1/2 Cup of Sugar
1 Tsp Cinnamon
Sprinkle the chips with the Cinnamon Sugar mixture, then arrange them on a plate.



Once you have arranged them on a plate then you can start adding toppings.

                                                               1st Set of toppings:

Dark Semi Sweet Chocolate(You can use whatever chocolate you want, but this tasted good.)
Bowl
Directions:
We used bitter sweet dark chocolate to melt and drizzle on top. We melted it in a bowl in the microwave, poured it in a little baggy. Then cut the end just a little bit. Then drizzled the top. 

2nd Set of Toppings:
5 Mint Leaves
Raspberries
Crumbled cookies( I made homemade chocolate chip cookies, but you can use store bought)

Directions
Around every other triangle we put a mint leaf and a raspberry on top. Then in a blender we took cold cookies and put them in my blender. Till it was cooking crumbs(not chunks). Then we lightly sprinkled it with cookie crumbs. 

Third set of Toppings:
The leftover melted chocolate
Whip Cream
5 Mint Leaves
1 Raspberry
Grated Milk Chocolate

In the middle we put whip cream in the middle. We used Redi Whip from a can. We drizzled the leftover bitter sweet dark chocolate on it. Placed the mint leaves around it. Topped it with a red raspberry in the middle. Then took the grated milk chocolate and sprinkled it over the dish. 


Last Set of toppings

Confectioners Sugar
Sifter

Sprinkle lightly over the top with the confectioners sugar :-) Then ENJOY!
