Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons sugar

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/2 cup strawberry jam

1/4 cup chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or almonds, optional for crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Taco Shells:

    - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

      - In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until it resembles wet sand.

        - Press the mixture into taco-shaped molds (or use a muffin tin upside down) to create a shell shape.

          - Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

            Make the Cheesecake Filling:

              - In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.

                - Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until well combined.

                  - Gently fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.

                    Assemble the Tacos:

                      - Once the taco shells are cool, carefully remove them from the molds.

                        - Spoon the cheesecake filling into each taco shell, filling them generously.

                          - Drizzle a little strawberry jam into each taco for added sweetness.

                            Add Fresh Strawberries and Crunch:

                              - Top each taco with sliced strawberries, arranging them attractively on top of the cheesecake filling.

                                - If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts over each taco to add an extra crunch.

                                  Chill and Serve:

                                    - Refrigerate the assembled tacos for at least 30 minutes to firm up the cheesecake filling slightly.

                                      - Serve chilled as a delightful dessert!
