Salvadoran quesadillanoun · 20th century

Well attested

A quesadilla with no tortilla: in El Salvador it is a sweet cheese pound cake.

Salvadoran bakers use the word for a loaf of cheese-enriched sweet bread eaten with coffee, not the folded tortilla the name calls up elsewhere. Both senses descend honestly from queso, cheese; only one of them involves a griddle.
