Cheesecake Cookie Dough Tacos

Cheesecake Cookie Dough Tacos combine creamy cheesecake filling and chewy edible cookie dough wrapped in crispy dessert taco shells, creating a perfect balance of tangy, sweet, crunchy, and smooth textures. Ideal for any occasion, this easy-to-make dessert uses simple ingredients and allows customization with various toppings and variations to suit all tastes.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped cream

For the Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup edible, safe-to-eat cookie dough (homemade or store-bought)

Others

  • 68 crispy dessert taco shells
  • Chocolate chips or sprinkles (optional)
  • Chocolate or caramel sauce for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, then gently fold in whipped cream to create a light and fluffy filling perfect for the taco shells.
  2. Prepare the Cookie Dough: If not using store-bought edible cookie dough, prepare your favorite safe-to-eat recipe ensuring there are no raw eggs. Chill or portion the dough into small balls sized to fit comfortably inside the taco shells.
  3. Assemble the Taco Shells: Carefully spoon a generous amount of cheesecake filling into each crispy taco shell, then add a portion of cookie dough on top, layering to ensure each bite combines creamy and chewy textures.
  4. Add Toppings: Sprinkle chocolate chips, colorful sprinkles, or drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce to add extra flavor and visual appeal.
  5. Chill Before Serving: Place the assembled tacos in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the filling firm up and the flavors meld beautifully.

Notes

  • Use cold cream cheese for a smoother filling texture.
  • Choose sturdy dessert taco shells to prevent sogginess.
  • Keep cookie dough portions bite-sized for balanced flavor in each taco.
  • Chilling the tacos before serving helps with slicing and enhances overall taste.
  • Feel free to add mix-ins like mini chocolate chips or crushed nuts into the cookie dough for extra texture.
