Ingredients
Scale
Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 ounces (226g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream
- 1 cup (150g) fresh strawberries, finely chopped
Graham Cracker Taco Shells:
- 1 1/2 cups (180g) graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup (50g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup (35g) chopped toasted pecans (optional)
- Additional chopped strawberries for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Cheesecake Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until well combined. Fold in the heavy cream and finely chopped strawberries until the mixture is evenly distributed.
- Graham Cracker Taco Shells: In a separate bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture is well-coated and resembles a coarse sand-like texture. Divide the graham cracker mixture evenly into 8 small taco-shaped molds or a muffin tin, pressing the mixture firmly into the sides and bottom to create the taco shells.
- Place the prepared graham cracker taco shells in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the shells are firm and hold their shape.
- Remove the chilled taco shells from the refrigerator. Carefully spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into the center of each taco shell, being sure to fill them evenly.
- Top the cheesecake filling with a sprinkle of chopped toasted pecans, if desired.
- Garnish the Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Tacos with additional chopped fresh strawberries, if desired.
- Serve the tacos chilled and enjoy the irresistible combination of creamy cheesecake, crunchy graham cracker, and juicy strawberries in every bite!
Notes
- You can customize these tacos by adding your favorite toppings like chocolate sauce or whipped cream.
- Ensure the taco shells are well-chilled before filling to maintain their shape.
