Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Double boiler
  • microwave
  • Mixing bowls
  • Piping bag

Ingredients
  

TACO SHELLS

  • 5 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
  • 13 ounces white chocolate

CHEESECAKE FILLING

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

TOPPING

  • cup strawberry syrup
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries

Instructions
 

Making Taco Shells

  • Start by cutting the tortillas with a 4 inch cookie cutter. You need 15 circles. Cover them with melted butter and place them on a muffin tin turned upside down, so that they get shell shape.
  • Bake at 350 F for 5-6 minutes or until the edges are golden. When they are done, take them out of the oven and leave to cool for a minute in the muffin tin, then transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, to cool completely.

Melting Chocolate

  • While tortilla shells are cooling, melt white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave.
  • For double boiler: Pour 1 inch water in a deep pan and heat it. Place a glass dish with chopped or crumbled white chocolate over the pan. Stir constantly until melted.
  • For microwave: Place chocolate in a microwave bowl and heat for 20 seconds, stir, and repeat until melted.

Coating Taco Shells

  • Spread melted white chocolate over each shell both outside and inside with a brush, then coat the shells with strawberry crumbs.
  • Place the coated shells on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to let the chocolate become solid.

Making Cheesecake Filling

  • In a bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  • In another bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold into the cream cheese mixture, then transfer to a piping bag.

Assembling Tacos

  • Place the shells in a muffin tin or dish where they can stand upright. Pipe the cheesecake filling into each shell.
  • Top with diced strawberries and strawberry syrup.
