My kiddos love buñuelo's, which are fried tortillas sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.  Of course they would rather have the real deal with homemade tortilla dough, but I usually use store bought flour tortillas and they still get devoured.  
Over the years we have made these as an afternoon treat, dessert after dinner, and sometimes just because.  With Valentines we make many food items heart shaped, even buñuelo's.  This is an easy treat your kiddos will enjoy and have fun using a heart shaped cookie cutter to cut out their tortilla.  
  
Ingredients:
12 Flour Tortillas
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 cup of Sugar
Canola Oil 

Directions:
Cut your tortillas to the desired shape, I normally do triangles, but since it's Valentine's, these are heart-shaped. You could use any shaped cookie cutters or do strips.

Mix together the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl.

Heat your oil to fry the tortillas, you can use a wooden spoon placed in the hot oil once bubbles start to form around the wooden spoon it's ready to go, or dip a tortilla in and look for those bubbles.  You do not want your oil too hot, during the process if you notice the tortillas are browning too quickly lower the heat gradually.

Once light and golden brown transfer to a paper towel to drain off excess oil, and sprinkle both sides with cinnamon and sugar mixture while warm.  Coat and serve.  

These are best served warm.  If you need to make them ahead of time, just re-warm them in the oven, but not too long, don't use the microwave, or they will not be as crispy.  

If you want to take these up notch, you can serve them with vanilla ice cream and strawberries or serve with maple syrup mixed with caramel sauce, or drizzled with honey, oh my goodness!
