Description
Fun and crunchy dessert tacos made with tortilla shells dipped in white chocolate and strawberry crunch, filled with silky cream‑cheese‑strawberry filling.
Ingredients
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup strawberry crunch (e.g. crushed Golden Oreos, freeze‑dried strawberries, melted butter)
- 6 fresh strawberries, finely diced
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil (to coat tortillas)
- 9 oz quark or cream cheese
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar
- 3.5 oz white chocolate, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C) (or 320 °F /160 °C fan‑assisted).
- Use a large cookie cutter or jar lid to cut tortillas into taco‑size circles. Lightly brush both sides of each with oil and shape them into taco shells using an inverted muffin tin. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove and allow shells to cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate. Coat each shell with a thin layer of melted white chocolate using a pastry brush, then immediately dip or sprinkle with strawberry crunch. Set on a plate and chill for about 10 minutes (or 3 minutes in freezer) until set.
- In a mixing bowl, beat quark (or cream cheese) at medium speed for about 1 minute until glossy. Add powdered sugar and beat for about 3 minutes until silky.
- Fold in finely diced strawberries.
- Transfer filling to a piping bag (with wide cut) and fill each shell—about 2 tablespoons per taco. Top each with additional strawberry crunch if desired.
Notes
- You can make your own strawberry crunch by processing 12 Golden Oreos with a cup of freeze‑dried strawberries and 2 tbsp melted butter, then baking at 320 °F (160 °C) for 5–7 minutes.
- Adjust powdered sugar to taste—white chocolate adds extra sweetness.
- To help taco shells hold their shape, bake in an inverted muffin tin or use toothpicks.
- Chill shells in the fridge or freezer to speed chocolate setting.
- Store shells separately in airtight containers: room temperature (3 days) or fridge (up to a week). Fillings keep in fridge (1 week) or freezer (6 months). Assembled tacos stay good up to a week in the fridge, thanks to the chocolate coating that helps keep the crunch. Ensure containers remain dry to avoid sogginess.
