  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar

For the Strawberry Topping

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries, chopped
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Taco Shells: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Mix sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Brush tortillas with melted butter, coat with cinnamon-sugar, fold in half, shape into tacos on a baking rack, and bake until crispy.

  4. Assemble the Dessert Tacos: Pipe cheesecake filling into taco shells and top with strawberry mixture.
  5. Serve: Enjoy these crispy dessert tacos immediately.

Notes

  • You can customize the taco shells by adding a sprinkle of additional cinnamon-sugar or even a drizzle of chocolate.
