# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Turn your oven on to 425°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper or give them a light grease.

Arrange the tortilla scoops on the sheets so they’re face up like little bowls.
03 -
Mix together the cream cheese, mozzarella, egg, sweet corn, chiles, and all the seasonings in a big bowl.
04 -
Spoon about a tablespoon of the mixture into each tortilla chip scoop.
05 -
Sprinkle parmesan over the filled chips, then bake them for 13-15 minutes until they’re golden brown and cheesy bubbles form.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
They taste the best when served warm.
02 -
Adjust the heat level by picking different types of chiles.
03 -
Don’t fill them too early if you want crispier chips—do it right before baking!
