Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 3 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped cream

Garnish

  • Additional Fruity Pebbles cereal, for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the 3 cups of Fruity Pebbles cereal with the melted unsalted butter. Mix well until every piece of cereal is evenly coated with butter to help bind the crust together.
  2. Form the taco shells: Press the buttery cereal mixture into taco-shaped molds or carefully shape by hand over the back of a baking sheet or similar surface. Allow them to set and harden by refrigerating for at least 30 minutes, which helps them hold their taco shell shape.
  3. Make the cheesecake filling: In a clean mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until fully combined and fluffy. Gently fold in the whipped cream to lighten the mixture and create a smooth, airy filling.
  4. Assemble the cheesecake tacos: Carefully fill each chilled Fruity Pebbles taco shell with the cheesecake mixture, ensuring even distribution. Top each taco with additional Fruity Pebbles cereal for extra crunch and vibrant color.
  5. Chill before serving: Place the assembled cheesecake tacos in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes to firm up the filling and set the shape before serving. Enjoy this playful and colorful no-bake dessert fresh for best texture and taste.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth and lump-free filling.
  • The taco shells are fragile; handle them gently to avoid breakage.
  • This dessert is best served within 24 hours for optimal freshness and crunch.
  • For variation, you can substitute Fruity Pebbles with a similar fruity or colorful cereal.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
