Process:
1. Fold the tortilla in half, and then in half again.
2. Cut out shapes and designs from the folded edges of the tortilla with the kitchen scissors. Cut through all of the layers, trying not to tear the tortilla.
3. Open the tortilla and place it flat on the baking sheet. It should resemble a snowflake design.
4. Carefully sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on the snowflake tortilla. Try to keep the cheese away from the holes.
5. Place the baking sheet and snowflakes under the broiler or in the toaster oven just until the cheese bubbles. Watch carefully - it only takes a moment. Wearing oven mitts, remove the bakiing sheet from the oven. Set aside and let cool for a few minutes.
6. While waiting, sprinkle a little cheese on the white plate.
7. With a spatula, remove the tortilla snowflake from the baking sheet.
8. To serve, place the tortilla on a white plate. Sprinkle with a little more cheese, if desired.
