Ingredients
  

4 flour tortillas (8-inch size)

1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or Nutella for a twist)

1/2 cup mini marshmallows

1/4 cup crushed graham crackers

1 banana, sliced (optional)

2 tablespoons butter, for toasting

Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Sprinkles, for fun (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients on your countertop. If using a banana, slice it into thin rounds.

    Spread the Base: Take two of the flour tortillas and spread an even layer of peanut butter (or Nutella) on one side of each tortilla.

      Layer the Goodies: On top of the peanut butter side, evenly sprinkle the chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and crushed graham crackers. Add banana slices if desired for extra flavor.

        Combine Tortillas: Place the second tortilla on top (peanut butter side facing the filling). This creates a quesadilla. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.

          Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once melted, place one quesadilla in the skillet.

            Toast the Quesadilla: Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden and crisp. Gently flip using a spatula and add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the pan. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the second side is golden and the filling starts to melt.

              Remove and Slice: Once cooked, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and allow it to cool slightly. Cut into wedges or triangles.

                Garnish & Serve: If desired, dust with powdered sugar and add some sprinkles for a fun touch. Serve warm with a glass of milk or any favorite beverage.

                  Repeat: Continue the process with any leftover ingredients until all quesadillas are cooked.
