Ingredients

- 10 Fajita Size Flour Tortillas
- 1/2 cup Walnuts chopped
- 1/2 cup Coconut shredded
- 1 Egg beaten with 2 tsp. water
- Vegetable Oil
- 1/2 cup Confectioners (Powered) Sugar

Melt the chocolate in a Pyrex cup over simmering water or in the microwave (microwave chocolate at 50% power for 2 minutes. Stir. If not melted, microwave for 1 minute more at 50% power). Mix in a bowl with the walnuts and the coconut.

Place 1/4 cup mixture in the center of a tortilla, spreading slightly into a circle. Moisten the edges of the tortillas with the egg wash and fold each one over into a half-moon, pressing around the edge.

Put confectioners sugar in a sieve. When the turnovers are cool enough to touch, sprinkle with the sugar. Serve warm.
