  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 6-8 tacos 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream

Fruit and Toppings

  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, washed and sliced thinly
  • 1/2 cup granola or crushed nuts
  • Whipped cream for garnish
  • Additional lemon zest for garnish
  • Small strawberry pieces for garnish

Shells

  • 6–8 crunchy taco shells (hard corn or flour shells)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: Beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Then, mix in vanilla extract and lemon zest to brighten the flavor.
  2. Wash and Slice Strawberries: Rinse fresh strawberries thoroughly and slice them thinly to ensure every bite is juicy without overpowering the filling.
  3. Fill the Taco Shells: Carefully spoon the cheesecake mixture into each crunchy taco shell, filling them generously but not overstuffing to keep them easy to eat.
  4. Layer Strawberries and Crunch: Top the cheesecake filling in each shell with sliced strawberries and then sprinkle granola or crushed nuts evenly for added texture and crunch.
  5. Add Whipped Cream and Garnish: Finish each taco with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of lemon zest, and a few small strawberry pieces to make them look irresistible.

Notes

  • Chill your ingredients for smoother and airier cheesecake filling.
  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor balance.
  • Fill taco shells gently with a spoon or piping bag to prevent cracking.
  • Toast nuts lightly before crushing to enhance aroma and flavor.
  • Prepare cheesecake filling ahead but fill taco shells just before serving to keep shells crisp.
  • Optionally add a drizzle of melted dark or white chocolate for extra indulgence.
