CHEESECAKE DESSERT TACOS!

Ingredients :

• SHELLS

• 6 large Flour Tortillas
• Oil for frying
• Graham crumbs (optional, this makes it a bit messy but tastes great)
  

  CHEESECAKE FILLING

• 8 oz cream cheese
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

• TOPPING

• 1 can pie filling (any flavor)

Directions :

1. SHELLS

   1. Using a 3.5″ circle cutter, cut out circles from your tortillas. You should get about 5 from each tortilla. (You can use any size cutter but this was the perfect size for a 2-3 bite taco).
   2. Heat about 1 1/2″ of oil in a pan on the stove over medium heat. Use a little scrap of tortilla to put in the oil and make sure it’s good & bubbly.
   3. Using tongs, place one circle in the oil for about 5 seconds. Flip it over and fold it in half holding it folded for about 5 seconds or until browned. Flip over and fry the other side until crispy. Immediately remove from the oil giving it a little shake and place into the graham crumbs if using.
   4. Set on a pan to cool. You can leave these at room temperature for up to 3 days.

   CHEESECAKE MIXTURE

   1. Cream together cream cheese and lemon juice until soft.
   2. Add whipping cream and beat on medium for 2 minutes. Add in sugar and vanilla then beat until stiff and fluffy. Place in a ziploc bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

   ASSEMBLY

1. Pipe cheesecake filling into each taco. Top with pie filling and serve.

TRES LECHES CAKE

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 5 large eggs , separated
• 1 cup sugar , divided
• 1/3 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 12 oz can evaporated milk
• 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 cup whole milk

For the whipped topping:

• 1 pint Heavy Cream , for Whipping
• 3 Tablespoons Sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• ground cinnamon , for topping

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9x13'' pan with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Separate the eggs into two separate bowls.
3. Add 3/4 cup sugar to the bowl with the egg yolks and mix on high speed until yolks are pale yellow. Add the 1/3 cup milk and vanilla and stir to combine. 
4. Pour the egg yolk mixture over the flour mixture and stir gently just until combined (don't over-mix).
5. Use electric beaters to beat the egg whites on high speed. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar as you mix and continue beating until stiff peaks.
6. Fold egg whites into the batter gently, just until combined. Pour batter into prepared pan. Make sure to smooth it into an even layer so your baked cake doesn't have divots in it.
7. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow cake to cool completely.
8. Combine the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk in a small bowl. Once the cake has cooled use a fork to poke holes all over the top of the cake. 
9. Slowly pour the milk mixture over the the top of the cake, making sure to pour near the edges and all around.
10. Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour or overnight, to allow it to soak up the milk.
11. In the meantime, whip the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks. Smooth over the top of the cake. Sprinkle cinnamon on top. Serve with fresh sliced strawberries, if desired. Enjoy!
