  • Author: Emma Carter
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

For the Taco Shells:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 large egg
– 3 tablespoons milk

For the Chocolate Coating:
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for shine)

For the Filling:
– 2 cups vanilla ice cream (or your favorite flavor)

For Toppings (optional):
– Chopped nuts (e.g., peanuts, almonds)
– Sprinkles
– Shredded coconut
– Mini chocolate chips


Instructions

Creating your own Homemade Choco Tacos can be a delightful experience when you follow these simple steps:

1. Make the Taco Shells:
– Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
– In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and cocoa powder.
– Add in the melted butter, egg, and milk. Mix until a smooth batter forms.

2. Form the Shells:
– Place small mounds of batter (about 1 tablespoon each) on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them well apart.
– Use the back of a spoon to flatten the mounds into thin circles.
– Bake for 8-10 minutes or until edges are slightly browned.

3. Shape the Taco Shells:
– While the taco shells are warm, immediately remove them from the oven.
– Gently lift each shell with a spatula and drape them over a rolling pin or a taco stand to shape them like tacos.
– Let them cool completely at room temperature.

4. Melt the Chocolate Coating:
– In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using).
– Heat in 15-second increments, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.

5. Assemble the Choco Tacos:
– Once the taco shells are cool, scoop your favorite ice cream into each shell, filling until it’s heaped.
– Dip the tops of each filled taco into the melted chocolate and let any excess drip off.

6. Add Toppings:
– Immediately sprinkle your choice of toppings onto the chocolate before it sets.
– Place the assembled tacos on a parchment-lined tray.

7. Freeze:
– Transfer the tray with the tacos to the freezer for at least 2 hours. This will allow the chocolate to harden and the ice cream to firm up.
