Ingredients
Scale
Taco Shells
- 1 cup mini flour tortillas
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Filling and Toppings
- 1/2 cup whipped cream or whipped topping
- 1/4 cup chopped strawberries
- 1/4 cup sliced bananas
- 1/4 cup crushed nuts such as almonds or peanuts
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare Taco Shells: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly press the mini tortillas into the shape of taco shells by draping them over the bars of an oven rack or placing them between inverted muffin tins. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes until slightly crisp but still flexible, then let cool.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring each time, until fully melted and smooth.
- Coat Shells: Dip or spread a thin layer of melted chocolate inside each taco shell, then place them in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to set the chocolate coating.
- Fill Tacos: Fill each chocolate-coated taco shell with whipped cream, then add sliced strawberries, banana slices, and crushed nuts for texture and flavor.
- Garnish and Serve: Drizzle caramel sauce and chocolate syrup over the filling. Lightly dust the tacos with powdered sugar before serving to add a sweet finishing touch.
Notes
- You can customize the fillings with marshmallows, peanut butter, or different fruits.
- For extra crunch, add granola to the filling.
- These tacos are best served immediately after assembling to keep the shells crisp.
