3. Assemble the Tacos

Spoon or pipe the cheesecake mixture into the cooled taco shells. A piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner snipped makes this easier (and neater).
Top with extra Fruity Pebbles and a dollop of whipped cream for that “Instagram-worthy” finish.

4. Chill Before Serving

Refrigerate the filled tacos for at least 30 minutes. This helps the filling set slightly and gives a cool contrast to the crispy shell.

Tips for Success

Don’t overbake the shells: Keep a close eye on them around the 6-minute mark to avoid burning.
Use room-temperature cream cheese: This ensures a smooth, lump-free filling.
Crush the cereal gently: You want small pieces, not dust, to keep some crunch in the filling.
Serve shortly after chilling: These tacos are best enjoyed the same day, before the cereal softens.

Serving Suggestions

This recipe yields 6 tacos, perfect for a small gathering. Pair them with:

A fruit punch mocktail or a light dessert wine
A scoop of vanilla or fruity sorbet
A platter of fresh berries for a pop of color

Want to take them over the top? Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top or serve with a side of berry compote.

Make It Your Own: Fun Variations

Looking to put your own spin on this dessert? Here are a few fun twists:

1. Chocolate Lovers’ Edition

Add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the cheesecake filling and top with mini chocolate chips and Cocoa Pebbles.

2. Vegan-Friendly Version

Use a dairy-free cream cheese alternative, coconut cream instead of sour cream, and vegan butter for the shells.

3. Ice Cream Taco Hack

Freeze the taco shells and fill them with your favorite ice cream and Fruity Pebbles for a summer-ready version.

4. Kid-Friendly Party Bar

Let kids build their own tacos with a variety of toppings like chocolate syrup, gummy bears, or crushed cookies. This makes a great party station!

Storage and Leftovers

While best enjoyed fresh, here’s how to keep them if you have extras:

Refrigerate: Store filled tacos in an airtight container for up to 2 days. The shell may soften slightly.
Unfilled shells: Can be stored at room temperature in a zip-lock bag for 3–4 days.
Cheesecake filling: Keep in the fridge for up to 4 days in a sealed container.

Freezing is not recommended, as the cereal and tortillas may lose their texture.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use a different cereal?

Absolutely! Try Cocoa Pebbles, Trix, or even Cap’n Crunch for different flavor and color profiles.

Can I use corn tortillas instead of flour?

Flour tortillas work best for the soft-crisp dessert texture. Corn tortillas tend to crack more easily when baked this way.

What if I don’t have an oven rack to hang tortillas over?

Use an upside-down muffin tin or a taco rack to bake the shells in a curved shape.

Is the filling safe to eat without baking?

Yes! This is a no-bake cheesecake filling, and all ingredients are safe to eat as-is.
