Chicken Enchildas with Cheese

This recipe was fantastic!!! I saved a step by not dipping the tortillas into the cream mixture. I poured a few ladles of the cream into the baking pan, then filled the tortillas and placed them in the pan and it turned out beautiful. I will definately make this again!
