Step-by-Step Instructions

  2. Gradually mix in granulated sugar and vanilla extract, continuing until well combined.
  3. Gently fold in the heavy cream using a spatula, mixing until beautifully blended.
  4. Add finely chopped strawberries and stir until evenly distributed throughout the cheesecake mixture.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted unsalted butter. Mix until the texture resembles damp sand.
  6. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the sides and bottoms of taco molds or a muffin tin.
  7. Place the molds in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.
  8. After chilling, remove the taco shells from the molds and fill each shell with the cheesecake mixture.
