Best Dessert Taco Bar Recipes

DESSERT TACO BAR

Steps:

• Cut six 4-inch circles of parchment paper. Prop up an oven rack on the counter, using cans of vegetables or beans; the rack should be elevated a few inches.
• Melt the marshmallows and butter together in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the cornflakes. Pour the mixture onto a baking sheet.
• Using the parchment circles as stencils, cut the corn treats into circles with a paring knife. Leaving the parchment on, mold the circles into a taco shape. Place the tacos, parchment down, into the oven rack so that the bottom of the tacos touch the countertop. (If they don't touch, lay the cans on their sides to lower the rack.) Let the tacos set up for 5 to 10 minutes, or until dried and crisp.
• Once the tacos are hardened, fill them with ice cream using a 2-tablespoon scoop, then sprinkle with rice cereal. Freeze until ready to serve. (When freezing, it's best to arrange the tacos snugly in a baking dish so they stand upright.)
• To serve, set up a toppings bar of diced strawberries, whipped cream, green shredded coconut and yellow and orange chocolate candies. Invite everyone top their taco with their favorite fixings.

CHEESECAKE DESSERT TACOS! (NO BAKE CHEESECAKE!)

Steps:

• Using a 3.5″ circle cutter, cut out circles from your tortillas. You should get about 5 from each tortilla. (You can use any size cutter but this was the perfect size for a 2-3 bite taco).
• Heat about 1 ½″ of oil in a pan on the stove over medium heat. Use a little scrap of tortilla to put in the oil and make sure it's good & bubbly.
• Using tongs, place one circle in the oil for about 5 seconds. Flip it over and fold it in half holding it folded for about 5 seconds or until browned. Flip over and fry the other side until crispy. Immediately remove from the oil giving it a little shake and place into the graham crumbs if using.
• Set on a pan to cool. You can leave these at room temperature for up to 3 days.
• Cream together cream cheese and lemon juice until soft.
• Add whipping cream and beat on medium for 2 minutes. Add in sugar and vanilla then beat until stiff and fluffy. Place in a ziploc bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Pipe cheesecake filling into each taco. Top with pie filling and serve.

DESSERT TACOS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Heat taco shells as directed on box. Meanwhile, in large bowl, gently mix fruit.
• Carefully remove cardboard from ice cream (do not damage cardboard). With serrated knife, cut ice cream into 6 (4x1x1-inch) rectangles. (Reassemble box around remaining ice cream for freezer storage; if necessary, wrap carton in plastic wrap to secure.)
• Place 1 rectangle of ice cream in bottom of each taco shell. Divide fruit mixture evenly over ice cream. Drizzle chocolate topping evenly over fruit. Top with whipped cream and nuts. Serve immediately.
