Last day for #BBQWeek 2022 and I’m ending it with dessert. What’s a cookout without dessert? I always love going to summer get togethers to see friends and eat all of the yummy food everyone brought. The desserts are always amazing. These Strawberry Cheesecake Dessert Tacos will fit right in with any summer potlucks. They are an easy dessert to make and since they are in “mini” form, they are great hand held sweet treats. Perfect ending to a delicious week of food.

If you want to have an assortment of mini dessert tacos, whip of a batch of Apple Pie Tacos and these Pina Colada Tacos to go with the strawberry ones.

Strawberry Cheesecake Dessert Tacos

I took a shortcut in making these strawberry cheesecake dessert tacos by using a canned pie filling. The pie filling I used was this one that didn’t have tons of sugar and really only used the same ingredients I would have making it from scratch. It’s a time saver. Of course, making your own is great too and I love this recipe for that.

Making the mini cinnamon sugar taco shells are easy if you use the bottom side of a regular muffin pan. I like to use the burrito size of flour tortilla shells to make mini taco shells. You will get about 6 or 7 mini shells if you use a 3.5 inch biscuit cutter to cut out the small rounds.

 You can bake the taco shells and the cheesecake mixture a day in advance. Store the shells in an airtight container on the counter and the filling in the refrigerator. When it’s time to serve, assemble the tacos as directing the in the recipe.

In case you’re wondering why the recipe calls for powdered sugar in the cheesecake filling, it’s because powdered sugar will blend much better than granulated. It won’t leave a grainy texture.

If you don’t have a piping bag to use for the cheesecake filling, a large resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped works perfectly.

Cheesecake Tacos are going to be your new favorite dessert! They’re great to add to your Taco Tuesday menu, perfect to serve a crowd for parties, cookouts, holidays, and more plus, everyone loves cheesecake.

How to Make Strawberry Cheesecake Dessert Tacos

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly spray the bottom of two 12-cup muffins tins with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, stir together the melted coconut oil, cinnamon, and sugar.

Step 4

Using a 3-inch biscuit or round cookie cutter, cut rounds out from the flour tortilla shells. Toss the rounds in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.

Step 5

Place all the mini taco shells between the crevices of the upside-down muffin tin and bake the shells in the oven for 6 – 7 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before removing from muffin tin.

Step 6

Make the cheesecake filling: Using a hand mixer and a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and lemon juice until soft. Add whipping cream and beat on medium for 2 minutes. Add in powdered sugar and vanilla then beat until stiff and fluffy. Place in a piping bag or ziploc and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

I like to place the piping bag in a large glass to make it easier to fill.

Step 7

To assemble the mini tacos: Pipe cheesecake filling into each taco.

Step 8

Next, spoon about a tablespoon of the strawberry pie filling on top of the cheesecake filling. Garnish with a dollop of the cheesecake filling and serve immediately.
