Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and allow about 10 minutes for it to reach the desired temperature.
  2. Stack the tortillas and cut out 5 circles using a 1.5-inch cookie cutter, then pierce both sides with a fork.
  3. Dip each tortilla circle in melted butter and roll in graham cracker crumbs until fully coated.
  4. Place the coated tortillas between cups of an upside-down cupcake pan to form taco shapes.
  5. Bake the shaped tortillas for 10-12 minutes until they are light golden brown, then let them cool completely.
  6. Mix the cream cheese, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth, then whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar before folding it in.
  7. Fill each cooled taco shell with the cheesecake mixture using a piping bag, and top with blueberry and strawberry jams.
  8. Serve immediately for the best texture, optionally garnishing with fresh berries or mint.
