Fruity Pebbles Cheesecake Tacos

This colorful treat is perfect for parties or whenever you want a nostalgic yet indulgent snack that requires no baking and little prep time.

Ingredients

Shell Ingredients

  • Mini tortillas or wonton wrappers – enough to form desired number of taco shells
  • Butter – for coating and binding the cereal shell (approx. 2-3 tablespoons)
  • Fruity Pebbles cereal – for coating the outside and inside of the taco shells (about 1-2 cups)

Cheesecake Filling Ingredients

  • Cream cheese – softened (8 ounces)
  • Powdered sugar – to taste, approximately ½ cup
  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon

Optional Toppings

  • Sprinkles
  • Fresh fruit like sliced strawberries or blueberries
  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate syrup or mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the shell: Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl, then gently toss mini tortillas or wonton wrappers until coated. Press each coated wrapper into a taco mold or over an inverted muffin tin to shape it. Sprinkle generously with Fruity Pebbles cereal, pressing lightly to help them stick.
  2. Chill the shells: Place the shaped shells in the refrigerator to chill and firm up for about 15 minutes, ensuring they hold their shape when filled.
  3. Mix the cheesecake filling: In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This luscious filling will balance perfectly with the crunchy shell.
  4. Fill the tacos: Once shells have chilled, spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into each taco shell, filling generously but carefully to avoid overflow.
  5. Garnish and serve: Top with extra Fruity Pebbles, sprinkles, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or your favorite garnish. Serve immediately or refrigerate to keep fresh.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese to ensure a smooth, creamy filling.
  • Press cereal firmly but gently onto the shells to help it adhere without crushing them.
  • Properly chill your shells before filling to prevent cracking or breaking.
  • Adjust the powdered sugar in the filling to customize sweetness to your preference.
  • Serve these tacos chilled to preserve the crunch and enhance the creamy texture.
