Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth, approximately 2 minutes. Gradually mix in granulated sugar and vanilla extract until combined.
  2. Fold in heavy cream using a rubber spatula until light and fluffy, then gently add in chopped fresh strawberries.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted unsalted butter until the texture resembles wet sand.
  4. Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into taco-shaped molds, shaping the sides and bottom.
  5. Chill the taco shells in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until firm.
  6. Remove the taco shells from the molds and spoon the cheesecake filling into each shell, filling about three-quarters full.
  7. Sprinkle chopped toasted pecans over the tops of each filled taco for added texture.
  8. Top each taco with additional chopped strawberries before serving for a fresh presentation.
  9. Serve the Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Tacos chilled for the best texture and flavor experience.
