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

can these be made gluten free
This printing system is terrible!!!
I made this! It was delicious!
I just made a test batch of these and they were a hit. Can you make them in advance at all for a large gathering?
This is f….. delisious. I would though say your timing is a bit strange. Takes at least 50 min with prepping, cooking and assembling.
I only used the shell/crust part of the recipe. I think 10 minutes is too long. I switched it to 6 minutes. Also once the butter gets in the graham crackers you either have to move fast or change it out.
My whole family has a sweet too so I’m always looking for unique simple delicious recipes and this one did not disappoint! It was so easy to make and SO delicious. Thanks for this, its a keeper!
