- 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
- ¼ cup whipping cream, whipped to soft peaks

- ½ cup whole milk
- 3 egg yolks
- 20 corn tortillas, torn into small pieces

- ½ tsp salt
- 2 quarts vegetable oil, for frying
Directions

Masa bites
- Place milk, eggs, salt, and sugar with the tortillas in a food processor, and pulse until chunky paste is achieved.
