Ingredients
For the Taco Shells:
- 18 street taco size flour tortillas
- 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup butter melted
For the Filling:
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 8 ounces whipped topping thawed - Cool Whip
- 21 ounces cherry pie filling
Instructions
- For the Shells:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a shallow bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Gently stab the tortillas with a fork 6-7 times to help prevent air bubbles.
- Coat both sides of the tortillas with the melted butter with a basting brush. Then gently press the tortillas down into the graham cracker mixture to coat the shells. Flip and repeat until both sides of the tortillas are coated.
- Flip a cupcake pan upside down, fold the tortillas in half and place them in between the cups of the pan so that they keep their shape while baking.
- Bake for 10-11 minutes until the shells are golden brown. Let the shells cool in the pan. Make sure that the shells have cooled completely before adding the filling.
- For the Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined with a hand held mixer or stand up mixer.
- Add in the whipped topping and beat until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Then transfer the mixture to a piping bag or a ziplock bag with one of the corners removed.
- Pipe the mixture into the cooled taco shells. Then top with 3-4 cherries with the sauce from the can of pie filling.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- If you cannot find the street taco size tortillas, cut soft taco size tortillas into 4 inch round circles with a cookie cutter or glass.
- Make sure that the cream cheese is at room temperature and has softened so that it mixes well with the other ingredients.
