Ice Cream Tacos With Chocolate and Peanuts image

The original Choco Taco may have a cult following, but we think this homemade version has it beat. Taco Tuesday just got a little bit sweeter.

Yield 4 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 waffle bowls
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 1/2 cups vanilla-fudge swirl ice cream (about 3/4 pint), slightly softened
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped (about 2/3 cup)
1 tablespoon refined coconut oil
2 tablespoons peanuts, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Brush insides of waffle bowls with maple syrup. Working one at a time, invert waffle bowl onto a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Heat in microwave 30 seconds; waffle will soften and flatten. Immediately mold waffle into a hard taco shell shape with your hands. Let rest until set, about 2 minutes.
  • Carefully fill waffles with ice cream (about 6 Tbsp. per taco); smooth surface with the back of a spoon or offset spatula. Transfer to a plate or parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and freeze until firm, at least 1 hour.
  • Combine chocolate and oil in a small, microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth, stirring occasionally. Stir in peanuts.
  • Working one at a time, roll ice cream side of taco into melted chocolate to completely cover ice cream. Return tacos to plate and freeze again until chocolate is set, about 10 minutes.
  • Do Ahead
  • Tacos can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

Overall, I thought this recipe was great. The tacos were easy to make and they tasted amazing. The only thing I would change is the amount of sugar in the chocolate sauce. I found it to be a bit too sweet for my taste.

I'm trying to eat healthier, so I made a few changes to this recipe. I used whole wheat tortillas, low-fat ice cream, and fresh fruit instead of candy. They were still delicious and satisfying, but without all the added sugar.

I've tried many ice cream taco recipes, but this one is by far the best. The tortillas are perfectly crispy, the ice cream is creamy and flavorful, and the toppings are the perfect finishing touch.

I'm allergic to peanuts, but I was still able to enjoy these tacos by using sunflower seed butter instead. They were just as delicious! I'm so glad I found this recipe.

I love getting creative with these tacos. I've tried different types of tortillas, ice cream flavors, and toppings. My favorite combination is chocolate ice cream, peanut butter, and chopped bacon. It's like a dessert nachos!

These ice cream tacos are a great way to save money on dessert. They're much cheaper than buying ice cream cones or sundaes at the store. Plus, you can use whatever toppings you have on hand.

I made a healthier version of these tacos by using whole wheat tortillas and low-fat ice cream. They were still delicious and satisfying, but without all the guilt. I'll definitely be making these again!
