Ingredients
Scale
- 8 small tortillas
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for dusting)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, etc.)

Instructions
- Prepare Taco Shells: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush both sides of the tortillas with melted butter and dust them with granulated sugar. Fold them into taco shapes and place over an oven rack, securing to hold the shape if needed. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until golden and crispy. Let cool.
- Make Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until the mixture is thick and holds peaks.
- Assemble Tacos: Fill each cooled taco shell with the cheesecake mixture using a piping bag or spoon. Top with fresh fruit and drizzle with chocolate sauce if desired.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
