 Ingredients
For the Taco Shells:
- 6 large flour tortillas
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
For the Strawberry Crunch Coating:
- 15 Golden Oreos, crushed
- 3 tbsp freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
For Assembly:
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- Extra strawberry crunch for garnish
- Whipped cream (optional)
 Instructions
1. Prepare the Taco Shells
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut the flour tortillas into 3-inch circles using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass. You should get 3–4 circles per tortilla.
- Brush both sides of each circle with the melted butter. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle over the tortillas.
- Drape the tortilla circles over the bars of an oven rack (to form taco shapes). Place a baking sheet underneath to catch any drips.
- Bake for 5–7 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Let them cool completely before removing.
2. Make the Strawberry Crunch
- Crush the Golden Oreos into fine crumbs (a food processor works best).
- Add the crushed freeze-dried strawberries and melted butter. Mix until combined.
- Spread the mixture onto a plate. Dip the edges of each cooled taco shell into melted white chocolate, then immediately coat with the strawberry crunch. Set aside to harden.
3. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. Transfer the cheesecake filling into a piping bag.
4. Assemble the Cheesecake Tacos
- Pipe the cheesecake filling into each taco shell.
- Top with diced fresh strawberries.
- Sprinkle extra strawberry crunch over the filling.
- Optional: Add whipped cream for extra indulgence.
 Tips for Success
- Crispier Shells: Bake the tortilla circles a little longer if you want extra crunch, but watch closely to prevent burning.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the shells and cheesecake filling a day in advance. Assemble right before serving.
- Flavor Twist: Try swapping strawberries with blueberries, raspberries, or even a tropical twist like mango.
 Serving Ideas
- Perfect for birthday parties, Valentine’s Day, or summer BBQs.
- Serve alongside vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent treat.
- Arrange them on a colorful platter for a stunning dessert table centerpiece.
