Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped cream

Taco Shells

  • 6 flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons butter or oil (for frying)

Toppings

  • 1 to 1½ cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
  • Optional toppings: chocolate chips, sprinkles, chopped nuts, fresh fruit slices (strawberries, kiwi), honey or melted chocolate drizzle

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: Beat the softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well until fully combined. Gently fold in the whipped cream to lighten the texture, creating a fluffy, luscious cheesecake filling that holds its shape.
  2. Shape the Taco Shells: Fold each flour tortilla over a small metal rack or hold with tongs to form a taco shape. Heat butter or oil in a pan over medium heat, then crisp the tortillas until golden brown and firm. Remove and allow to cool slightly while maintaining their shape.
  3. Fill the Tacos: Spoon generous but moderate amounts of the cheesecake filling into each crisped taco shell. Be careful not to overfill to prevent breaking and maintain easy handling.
  4. Add Fruity Pebbles Coating: Sprinkle Fruity Pebbles cereal generously over the cheesecake filling and press lightly to ensure the cereal sticks without crushing the shell, adding a colorful crunch to each bite.
  5. Add Optional Toppings: Enhance your tacos with optional toppings like chocolate chips, chopped nuts, fresh fruit slices, or a drizzle of honey or melted chocolate before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth, lump-free filling.
  • Do not overfill the taco shells to avoid breaking and for easy eating.
  • Use fresh, pliable flour tortillas for the best results when crisping shells.
  • Press gently when applying Fruity Pebbles to retain the shell’s integrity.
  • Chill filled tacos briefly before serving to let flavors meld and filling firm up.
