Notes
The prep time will vary for everyone, depending on how many you need to make and how many little hands will be helping! Let the kids fill their own cup! Kids can even crumble their own brownie and layer how they please!
If you’ve never made cinnamon sugar tortillas (chips, strips, cups, etc) then here is a very simple recipe! Instead of cutting into chips, gently press each tortilla into a large muffin tin! Don’t worry about rips – kids love the drippy mess from their ice cream! :)
