Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped topping
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
- 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Add softened butter, egg, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until a dough forms.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Roll the dough into small balls and press them into the shape of taco shells using a muffin tin. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool completely.
- In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined.
- Once the taco shells are cool, fill each shell with the cream cheese mixture. Top with sliced strawberries and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs. If desired, drizzle with melted chocolate chips.
- Chill the filled tacos in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
- For a twist, try using different fruits like blueberries or raspberries.
- You can also substitute the graham cracker crumbs with crushed nuts for added texture.
