Baked Snowflakes
Six flour tortillas
vegetable oil
powdered sugar
edible glitter
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Warm tortillas in the microwave for about 15 seconds. Individually fold the
tortillas in half once, then in half again so that you end up with a shape that resembles a wedge of pie.
Using clean scissors, cut triangles, circles, or squares out of the edges (as if you were cutting a paper
snowflake). Unfold the tortillas, lightly brush the tops of the snowflakes with the oil and place them
on the cookie sheet. Bake them until lightly browned and crisp (about 4 minutes). Sift powdered
sugar onto the snowflakes while still warm. Sprinkle with edible glitter.
