Strawberry cheesecake is delicious….one of my favorite desserts for sure! Cheesecake in taco shell is a fun twist on the usual cheesecake and a great way to serve it to a crowd!

These strawberry cheesecake tacos are amazing! You can make them keto-friendly by using low carb tortillas and swapping out the sugar for your favorite keto sweetener replacement instead.

   • SERVINGS 20

INGREDIENTS:

   • 5 8 inch Tortillas about 20 rounds

   • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

   • 1/4 cup butter melted

   • 1 cup strawberries chopped

   • 1/4 cup sugar

   • 2 tsp water

   • 1 tbsp corn starch

   • 1 tbsp cold water

   • 1 cup heavy cream

   • 1 cup cream cheese softened

   • 1 tsp lemon zest

   • 1 tsp vanilla

   • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

DIRECTIONS:

1- Pre-heat oven to 400F.  Cut 4-5 rounds out of each tortilla shell with a cookie cutter to get about 20 shells. Dip each into melted butter then coat in graham cracker crumbs.

2- Flip a muffin tin upside down. Place the tortilla pieces in between muffin cups. Bake 10 minutes until just golden brown. Let cool in pan.

3- Make the strawberry Filling: In a small pot pour water, add sugar and strawberries. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer to soften the strawberries.

4- Dissolve cornstarch in water and pour into strawberry mix and bring to a boil, stirring constantly (mixture will be slightly chunky). Remove to cool completely.

5- Beat cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, lemon zest and vanilla for 2 minutes, using medium speed, until it thickens. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Transfer to a piping bag.

6- Fill the taco shells with cream cheese filling and top with 1/2 tsp strawberry filling. Sprinkle with additional graham cracker crumbs, optional!

ENJOY!!
