Ingredients

  • 5 8 inchTortillas ((about 20 rounds))
  • 1 cupGraham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cupButter ((melted))
  • 1 cupStrawberries ((chopped))
  • 1/4 cupSugar
  • 2 tspWater
  • 1 tbspCorn starch
  • 1 tbspCold water
  • 1 cupHeavy cream
  • 1 cupCream cheese ((softened))
  • 1 tspLemon zest
  • 1 tspVanilla
  • 1/4 cupPowdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    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.

  2. 2

    Flip a muffin tin upside down. Place the tortilla pieces in between muffin cups. Bake for 10 minutes until just golden brown. Let cool in pan.

  3. 3

    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.

  4. 4

    Dissolve cornstarch in cold water and pour into the strawberry mix; bring to a boil, stirring constantly (the mixture will be slightly chunky). Remove to cool completely.

  5. 5

    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.

  6. 6

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