Ingredients
  

Taco Shells
  • 6 small flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup sugar for coating
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
Cheesecake Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream whipped
Apple Topping
  • 2 medium apples peeled and diced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut tortillas into circles using a cookie cutter.
  2. Brush each tortilla with melted butter, then coat with cinnamon sugar. Bake over the oven rack to form taco shells until golden and crisp, about 8–10 minutes.
  3. For the filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in whipped cream. Chill until ready to use.
  4. For the apple topping: In a pan, melt butter and add apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook for 5–6 minutes until tender and caramelized.
  5. Assemble tacos: Fill cooled shells with cheesecake mixture, top with warm apple mixture, and serve immediately.
