Brush 1 tablespoon butter over 4 of the tortillas. Place buttered sides down on a large cookie sheet. Combine cheese and remaining ingredients (including plantain if using); mix well. Spoon mixture evenly over tortillas, spreading to edges. Top with remaining tortillas, pressing down to compact filling. Brush remaining 1 tablespoon butter over tops of tortillas.
