It’s that time of month again, when I join forces, {for good, not evil}, with 11 other bloggers to bring you delicious recipes! 12 Bloggers is a super fun series: 12 themed recipes for 12 months that are 12 ingredients or less. This month the theme is apple desserts.

Whenever I think of apple desserts, my mind always goes directly to apple pie. Not because it’s my favorite dessert, but because it’s Mr. Disorganized’s favorite. When we first met, he took me out for apple pie. À la mode. With melted cheddar cheese on top. I’ll admit, I was skeptical at first, but, since I thought he was really cute {and he drove a nice truck}, I wasn’t about to refuse.

Have you ever had a fruit and cheese platter? It goes great together, right? Well, so does the apple pie and melted cheddar. It was so good. Now, there’s no way I’m making an apple pie in the middle of summer, but, we don’t let that stop us from enjoying a fabulous dessert. An apple pie chimi is super easy to make, and only takes about 15 minutes to make.

Simply take a medium flour tortilla, place apple pie filling and shredded cheddar cheese.

Next, take the bottom half of the tortilla and fold up to the middle, just enough to cover the filling.

Next, fold the left and right ends over to close up the sides.

Fold the top of the tortilla down and you’re ready to fry your apple pie chimi. Don’t have a deep fryer? No worries, neither do I. Just use a large skillet that will hold at least two chimi’s. Heat the pan, add oil & let the oil get hot. Place each chimi in the pan and fry until golden. Flip so other side gets golden, too.
