Chocolate Tacos For Valentine's Day

[Guest guest]

These went over big last Valentine's Day

 

Chocolate Tacos

 

Chocolate Tortillas:

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar

3 tablespoons good quality unsweetened cocoa

1/4 cup skim milk

2 egg whites

1/4 cup oil, either vegetable or olive oil

1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 teaspoon salt

 

Filling:

fill with whatever fruit is fresh and wonderful,

strawberries (grind a tiny amount of fresh pepper over

them, or if they're not especially sweet, slice and

sprinkle with balsamic vinegar and let sit for an hour

raspberries

blackberries

blueberries

chopped mango

kiwi

sliced peaches, grate some nutmeg over them

 

Tortillas: Beat all ingredients until smooth. Cover

and chill at least 2 hours, or overnight. Heat a

non-stick skillet over moderately high heat. Pour in a

little less than 1/4 cup of batter and tilt pan

quickly to spread batter into an even circle. Once the

edges look dry (2 or 3 minutes), flip it and cook

another minute or two on the other side.

If you have a taco rack, put the soft tortilla in that

to firm up, or drape it over a rack.

Serve: with a coordinated fruit sorbet, garnished with

a mint sprig and edible flower.

Serves 10.
