Ingredients
1 flat-bottomed waffle cone (cake cone) or 1 sugar cone
4–5 inch fried flour tortilla circle tossed in cinnamon sugar
2 ounces full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
2 tablespoons whipped topping (like Cool Whip) or lightly sweetened whipped cream
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
a squeeze of lemon juice
6–8 Golden Oreo cookies (or similar vanilla sandwich cookies)
2 tablespoons freeze-dried strawberries
1 tablespoon melted butter
Fresh strawberry slices
Melted white chocolate
Extra pinch of freeze-dried strawberry powder
Instructions
1-Make the crunch topping: Crush Golden Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries, mix with melted butter until like wet sand, store in airtight container up to 3 days.
2-Make the cheesecake filling: Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until fluffy, fold in whipped topping until thick and creamy, optionally add vanilla and lemon juice, refrigerate up to 2 days.
3-Choose and shape the taco shell: Use a pre-made shell, fry a tortilla circle until golden then drape over a muffin tin, or warm a sugar cone in the oven and bend into taco shape.
4-Apply moisture barrier: Brush inside of shell with melted white chocolate and let set to prevent sogginess.
5-Fill the shell: Pipe or spoon cheesecake filling evenly into the shell, not overstuffing.
6-Add crunch topping: Generously press strawberry crunch mixture onto the filling so it sticks.
7-Garnish and serve: Top with fresh strawberry slices and optional drizzle, serve immediately.
