Preheat oven to 400°F. Place halved jalapenos cut side down on a baking sheet.
Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender with blackened spots. Let cool slightly.
Butter one side of each tortilla. Place one tortilla butter-side down in a skillet over medium heat.
Spread cream cheese on the tortilla in the skillet. Arrange roasted jalapenos evenly over it.
Sprinkle with shredded cheese and crushed tortilla chips if using, then top with second tortilla, butter-side up. Press gently with spatula.
