Ingredients
Scale
Crunchy Shell
- 3 cups colorful fruity cereal
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Cheesecake Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped cream
Garnish
- Additional fruity cereal for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Crunchy Shell: Combine the colorful fruity cereal with the melted butter, stirring thoroughly to ensure every piece is evenly coated with butter.
- Shape the Shells: Firmly press the cereal mixture into small taco molds or muffin tins to form taco-shaped shells. Place them in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the shells to set and become firm.
- Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it becomes light and fluffy. Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Incorporate Whipped Cream: Gently fold in the whipped cream using a spatula, ensuring you maintain a light and airy texture in the cheesecake filling.
- Assemble the Tacos: Spoon the cheesecake filling generously into each chilled fruity cereal shell, filling them up beautifully.
- Add Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle additional fruity cereal on top of each filled taco for extra crunch and a pop of color. Serve immediately for the best texture, or refrigerate further if a firmer filling is desired.
Notes
- For best results, use fresh whipped cream to keep the filling light.
- If you do not have taco molds, muffin tins can be used to create a taco shape by gently pressing the mixture on the sides.
- These tacos are best served the same day but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- You can substitute the fruity cereal with other crispy cereals for different flavors and colors.
