Dessert Tacos

I also tried one last recipe before leaving. These were awesome, however we had some trouble making the tacos. Our recipe used sugar cookies but other recipes such as this one recommend using flour tortillas which sounds a lot easier. I’ll give instructions for the way we tried. 

Also the key to making these amazing is using fresh fruit and to making some real whipping cream. They can be served as dessert or a not so healthy but yummy breakfast. 

Ingredients
1 pkg. sugar cookie mix
Cinnamon sugar
Fresh fruit
Whipping cream

Directions 
1. Prepare sugar cookie mix according to directions. Roll into large balls and flatten on a baking sheet. 2. Make sure the cookies are fairly large, you need to be able to fold them in half and fit a fair amount of fruit in them. Sprinkle cookies with cinnamon.

3. Bake according to directions. Immediately after removing them from the oven, drape over some sort of cylinder object. We used aluminum foil rolls. This is where it gets difficult however because our cookies kept breaking. We also tried, as you can see in the photo, to drape between two rolls to stop them from breaking, this sort of worked but still was frustrating. My advice would be not to push to cookies to much because they are very delicate. 

4. While the cookies cool, use a beater to make whipping cream. Beat until the cream becomes thick, this will take a while if you haven’t done it before but it is so worth it. Cut up your fresh fruit.

5. Fill each taco with whipped cream and fruit and enjoy all your frustratingly hard work.
