Nachos are a delicious and fun twist on traditional nachos. Here’s a simple recipe for making them:
Ingredients:
For the Nachos:
1 bag of tortilla chips (thicker chips work best)
2 cups of shredded sweetened coconut (optional for extra crunch)
For the Cheesecake Topping:
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup heavy cream (or milk for a lighter version)
For the Strawberry Topping:
1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
2 tbsp sugar (or honey)
1 tbsp lemon juice
For Garnish:
Whipped cream (optional)
Crushed graham crackers (optional, for extra crunch)
Instructions:
Prepare the Strawberries:
In a bowl, combine the diced strawberries, sugar (or honey), and lemon juice. Stir gently and set aside for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Make the Cheesecake Topping:
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Slowly add in the heavy cream, a little at a time, until the mixture reaches a smooth, spreadable consistency.
Assemble the Nachos:
Lay out the tortilla chips on a large platter or baking sheet.
Spoon the cheesecake topping evenly over the chips, spreading it lightly.
Top with Strawberries:
Spoon the marinated strawberries over the chips, ensuring an even distribution.
Optional Garnishes:
If desired, sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the nachos for added crunch, or add a drizzle of whipped cream on top.
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve immediately for a fun and indulgent treat!
