Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/2 cup crushed freeze-dried strawberries

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and diced

Taco shells (mini or regular size)

Extra crushed freeze-dried strawberries for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crunch Shells: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and crushed freeze-dried strawberries. Add the melted butter and mix until well combined.

    Shape the Shells: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Press the mixture into the forms of mini taco shells on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Use the bottom of a cup to create grooves. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden. Allow to cool completely.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fully combined.

        Prepare Whipped Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture until it's light and fluffy.

          Assemble the Tacos: Once the taco shells have cooled, fill each shell with a generous scoop of the cheesecake filling, followed by a layer of diced fresh strawberries.

            Add Crunch Topping: Sprinkle extra crushed freeze-dried strawberries on top of each filled taco for a delightful crunch.

              Chill and Serve: Place the assembled tacos in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set. Serve chilled for a refreshing dessert.
