Health and fertility benefits of Ice Cream Tacos

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).

Ingredients

2 tbsp. cinnamon
1/4 c. sugar
2 c. chocolate chips
2 tbsp. butter
3 Small flour tortillas
1/4 c. rainbow sprinkles
vanilla ice cream
caramel sauce

Instructions

Make cinnamon sugar: On a small plate, combine sugar and cinnamon and mix until fully combined.
Melt chocolate chips over a double boiler until smooth. Set aside.
In a small skillet over medium heat, heat butter. Add tortillas and sauté, 1 at a time, until golden and crisp, 2 minutes per side. Dredge both sides of the tortilla in cinnamon sugar.
Shape the tortillas: Fold tortillas in half and dip the outer edges in melted chocolate, then dip in sprinkles. Flip over a muffin tin and stand the tortillas upright. Let sit until chocolate is hardened, about 10 minutes.
Fill each taco with 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream. Top with caramel sauce. Freeze until hard, at least 30 minutes.
