Description
A sweet and tangy dessert taco featuring a creamy cheesecake filling and fresh berries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 small flour tortillas
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional)
- Mint sprigs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly brush both sides of the flour tortillas with oil or butter.
- Drape the tortillas over the bars of your oven rack or taco holders to form a taco shell shape.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp. Let cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Spoon the cheesecake filling into the cooled taco shells.
- Top with fresh mixed berries.
- Sprinkle with chopped nuts, if desired.
- Garnish with mint sprigs, if using.
Notes
- You can also bake the tortillas in muffin tins to create bowl shapes.
- For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of heavy cream to the cheesecake filling.
- Ensure the taco shells are completely cool before filling to prevent the cream cheese from melting.
