Ingredients
- 10–12 small flour tortillas (street taco size)
- 3 tbsp butter, melted (for brushing shells)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (or 1 cup whipped topping)
- 1 cup strawberry pie filling (or macerated fresh strawberries)
- 12 golden Oreos or vanilla sandwich cookies
- 1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries
- 2 tbsp melted butter (for crunch topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Use a round cookie cutter to cut small circles from tortillas, if needed.
- Brush tortillas with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Drape tortillas over the bars of an upside-down muffin tin to shape into taco shells.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes until golden and crisp. Let cool completely.
- In a bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Fold in whipped cream or whipped topping until light and fluffy.
- In a food processor, pulse golden Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries into crumbs. Mix with melted butter until crumbly.
- Spoon or pipe cheesecake filling into cooled taco shells.
- Top with strawberry pie filling and sprinkle with strawberry crunch.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving for best texture.
Notes
- Make filling ahead and store in fridge for up to 2 days.
- Assemble tacos just before serving to keep shells crisp.
- Try different pie fillings like cherry or blueberry for variety.
- Use store-bought mini taco shells or waffle bowls to save time.
- Graham crackers can be used in place of Oreos for a classic flavor.
- Do not freeze, as texture changes after thawing.
