Ingredients
Scale
For the Taco Shells:
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped
For the Blueberry Topping:
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
- Prepare the Taco Shells: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Brush both sides of each flour tortilla with melted butter, then evenly sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over both sides. Place the tortillas in a taco holder or drape them over the bars of an oven rack to form taco shapes. Bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until crispy and lightly golden. Remove and let cool.
- Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Prepare the Blueberry Topping: In a small bowl, toss the fresh blueberries with lemon juice and granulated sugar (if using) to enhance their flavor.
- Assemble the Dessert Tacos: Spoon the cheesecake filling into each crispy taco shell. Generously top the filled tacos with the blueberry mixture.
- Serve: Serve the blueberry cheesecake dessert tacos immediately, optionally garnished with a sprinkle of additional cinnamon for extra flavor.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, let the taco shells cool completely before filling.
- You can substitute fresh blueberries with other berries or fruits of your choice.
- Adjust the sweetness of the blueberry topping by omitting or adding more sugar according to your taste.
- Make the cheesecake filling in advance and refrigerate for a firmer texture.
- Use a taco holder or oven rack bars carefully to avoid breaking the soft tortillas before baking.
