 Ingredients List

  • ~~~~ Shells ~~~~
  • 6 large Flour Tortillas
  • Oil for frying
  • Graham crumbs (optional, this makes it a bit messy but tastes great)
  • ~~~~ Cheesecake Filling ~~~~
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ~~~~ Topping ~~~~
  • 1 can pie filling (any flavor)

 Directions

~~~~ Shells ~~~~

1. Using a 3.5" circle cutter, cut out circles from your tortillas. You should get about 5 from each tortilla. (You can use any size cutter but this was the perfect size for a 2-3 bite taco).

2. Heat about 1 1/2" of oil in a pan on the stove over medium heat. Use a little scrap of tortilla to put in the oil and make sure it's good & bubbly.

3. Using tongs, place one circle in the oil for about 5 seconds. Flip it over and fold it in half holding it folded for about 5 seconds or until browned. Flip over and fry the other side until crispy. Immediately remove from the oil giving it a little shake and place into the graham crumbs if using.

4. Set on a pan to cool. You can leave these at room temperature for up to 3 days.


~~~~ Cheesecake Mixture ~~~~

5. Cream together cream cheese and lemon juice until soft.

6. Add whipping cream and beat on medium for 2 minutes. Add in sugar beat until stiff and fluffy. Place in a ziploc bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
~~~~ Assembly ~~~~

7. Pipe cheesecake filling into each taco. Top with pie filling and serve.
