I first came across this recipe in Epicurious but I have tweaked it into something my friends like better. It is a great appetizer with margaritas or chilled Chardonnay!

Steps:
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat.
- Add onion and sauté until onion is golden brown, stirring frequently, about 25 minutes.
- Season with freshly cracked pepper.
- Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.
- Brush heavy large skillet with remaining butter. Place over medium-high heat. Working in batches, Sprinkle cheese, prosciutto and sautéed onion on tortilla, dividing equally, top with another tortilla making a sandwich. Cook quesadillas just until brown spots appear, brushing skillet with butter between batches, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer quesadillas to cutting board. Cut each into 6 triangles. Arrange on platter and serve hot or at room temperature.
- I usually serve with sour cream mixed with mango chutney and Tabasco, and lime wedges.
