ICE CREAM TACOS
Talk about a fun presentation! Karen Oney's cute dessert looks just like a taco-but it's stuffed with chocolate ice cream and topped with cherries and coconut instead of tomatoes and lettuce. "These are as much fun to make as to eat," promises the creative Fort Worth, Texas cook.

GIANT ICE CREAM TACO
You'll need more than two hands for this taco: It's an ice cream cake! We made two big cornmeal cookies for the shell, filled them with chocolate ice cream and cocoa cereal to look like ground beef, then added green-tinted coconut, slivers of Circus Peanuts and chopped maraschino cherries. It's delicious and messy - just like the real thing.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare the cookie mix as the label directs for drop cookies, mixing in the cornmeal. Roll out into a 13-inch round on floured parchment paper; trim into a 12-inch circle with a paring knife.
- Cut the cookie in half with the paring knife to make 2 semicircles, then use kitchen shears to cut through the parchment so each semicircle is on its own piece of parchment.
- Slide 1 semicircle (on the parchment) onto a rimmed baking sheet. Press the straight edge of the semicircle up against the rim as shown. Slide the other semicircle flat onto a separate baking sheet. Bake until golden, 12 minutes.
- Remove the cookies from the oven. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to shape the edge of the curved cookie. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets.
- Put the curved cookie on a clean parchment-lined baking sheet. Cut the ice cream out of the carton; slide onto the cookie. Use plastic wrap to gently press the ice cream so that it goes almost to the edge.
- Sprinkle the side of the ice cream with the cereal, pressing to adhere. Transfer to the freezer.
- To make "lettuce," combine the coconut with 3 drops green food coloring, 1 drop yellow food coloring and a small splash of water in a resealable plastic bag; shake and massage until the coconut is light green.
- Slice the Circus Peanuts into thin strips to look like shredded cheese; chop the cherries for the tomatoes.
- Sprinkle the coconut, Circus Peanuts and cherries over the cereal. Place the other cookie on top of the ice cream so the two cookie edges line up. Freeze until firm, at least 2 hours.
ICE CREAM TACOS
Steps:
- Scoop the ice cream 3 scoops at a time into a large piping bag and use your hands to warm the ice cream slightly. Fill a taco shell with ice cream almost to the top, then squeeze the shell a bit to compress the ice cream and push it even with the rim of the shell. Put the filled shell back in the freezer, then continue with the remaining taco shells and ice cream, refilling the piping bag as needed. Freeze until the ice cream is solid again, about 30 minutes.
- Melt the chocolate and 1/2 cup of the cream in a double boiler. Stir until smooth and shiny. If it is too thick (depending on the chocolate brand), add a bit more cream--the chocolate mixture should cling to the taco when dipped, but not run right off. Dip the top of each taco in the chocolate. Fill in any empty spots by spooning on additional chocolate and spreading it. Let any excess drip off, then roll each in the chopped pepitas while the chocolate is still setting. Freeze again to set the chocolate, about 30 minutes.
ICE CREAM CRUNCH TACOS
Steps:
- Using a serrated knife, slice the carton of ice cream into 4 even round pieces. Peel off the carton, then place 1 disc of ice cream on each of 4 pizzelle cookies. Coat with peanuts and hot fudge, top with a second pizzelle and press down. Wrap in plastic and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat for 5 minutes. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together well on a plate.
- Lay out the tortillas and spread them with a thin layer of dulce de leche, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Add a small amount of rainbow sprinkles across the dulce. Unwrap the pizzelle ice cream sandwiches and place them in the middle of each tortilla, then fold the tortilla around them to wrap well. If the tortilla is not large enough and there is a gap, cut the 5th tortilla in quarters and adhere 1 quarter to the bottom of each sandwich with dulce de leche.
- Coat the cast-iron pan with ghee and add the wraps, seam-side down, pressing down with the back of a spatula to sear, about 9 seconds. Flip and repeat the searing. Move to the plate with the cinnamon sugar and turn to coat. Serve immediately. Repeat with the remaining wraps.
CHOCOLATE-COVERED ICE CREAM TACOS
Steps:
- First, gather six to eight 1-inch-thick hardcover books and wipe the spines and covers clean (you could also cover them in parchment paper). Set them up vertically, spine up, so that they can be your taco shell molds.
- For the taco shells: To make the taco shell batter, whisk together the flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Add the melted butter to a separate bowl and whisk in the milk, vanilla extract and almond extract. Then whisk in the egg whites. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix to form a smooth batter.
- To cook the shells, heat a skillet over medium heat. Grease it with butter and then spoon in 2 1/2 tablespoons of batter. Spread it out gently with the back of a spoon or offset spatula so you have an even circle. Cook until slightly brown on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until slightly brown on the second side, 1 to 2 more minutes. Remove it from the skillet and gently fold it over the spine of the book to make a taco shell shape. Let cool on the book. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- For the fillings and toppings: To make the chocolate topping, place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until melted. Let the chocolate cool slightly before topping the tacos.
- Let the ice cream soften a bit, fill the taco shells, drizzle with as much chocolate as you wish, top with nuts and enjoy! If you're making these in advance, stick them in the freezer, uncovered, for a few minutes until the chocolate hardens, and then wrap in plastic wrap and freeze until you're ready to eat them.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray, then line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the short sides.
- Prepare the cake mix with an extra egg. Divide the batter between the 2 baking sheets; spread evenly with an offset spatula. Bake until set, 8 to 9 minutes; let cool.
- Measure 2 1/2 inches in from each long side of one cake; mark with toothpicks. Score using a ruler, then remove the toothpicks and trim along the scored lines so the cake is 7 inches wide.
- Round the corners of the cake with a knife. Punch out holes with a straw (4 holes across, 10 down). Trim the other cake (no need to punch holes). Freeze the cakes 30 minutes.
- Invert the cake without the holes onto a clean baking sheet; peel off the parchment. Snip open 1 ice cream carton with kitchen shears, then slide the ice cream onto the cake.
- Repeat with the other 2 cartons of ice cream, arranging them side by side on the cake. Cover with plastic wrap and press with your hands to smooth the ice cream and fill the gaps.
- Remove the other cake from the parchment with a thin spatula; place it on the ice cream. Trim any excess cake and smooth the sides. Freeze at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:
- Make the taco shells: in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until combined.
- Add the milk, vanilla, and butter, and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Sift in the flour and cocoa powder. Whisk until smooth.
- Heat a small non-stick pan over medium-low heat, then add ⅓ cup (95 g) of batter at a time and tilt the pan to spread the batter evenly like a crepe.
- Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the batter is set, about 6-8 minutes. Flip the taco shell and cook on other side for another 3-4 minutes, until cooked through.
- If desired, remove the taco shell from pan and place on a grated cooling rack while still hot. Place a sheet of parchment over the shell and press into the rack, allowing the grate marks to set into the shell. Rotate the shell 90 degrees and press the cone into the grates again for a waffled look. Or, skip to the next step.
- Place the taco shells between the cups of an inverted muffin tin to form their shape. Let set for about 10 minutes, then freeze for 20 minutes to harden.
- Make the magic shell: combine the chocolate and coconut oil in a medium bowl and microwave for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and shiny.
- Remove the taco shells from the freezer and use a spoon to coat the inside of each taco shell with melted magic shell. Return to the freezer for 20 minutes, until the magic shell hardens. Reserve the leftover magic shell.
- Add the ice cream to a piping bag fitted with a round tip or a zip-top bag with the corner cut off.
- Remove the shells from the freezer and pipe in the ice cream, filling the tacos. Smooth out the tops with a knife or rubber spatula. Freeze for 2 hours.
- Microwave the reserved magic shell, if needed, to re-melt. Remove the tacos from the freezer and dip the tops of each taco in the magic shell, then immediately sprinkle with the crushed peanuts.
- Serve immediately or return to the freezer until ready to eat.
- Enjoy!
