Makes up to 24 Servings


Ingredients:

1 Carton Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pies

1 Carton Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies

1/2 Cup Cherry Sours Candy, halved

2 Cups Shredded Coconut Flakes, divided

1 Tube Green Food Coloring

1 Tube Orange Food Coloring

1 Container Vanilla Frosting


Supplies:

Mixing Bowls

Piping Bag


Directions:

  1. Unwrap each Cosmic Brownie and remove the chocolate candy pieces. Crumble brownies and set aside in a small bowl. (Discard or snack on the chocolate candy pieces!)
  2. In another bowl, add a cup of coconut flakes and a small amount of green food coloring. Toss with a fork to mix thoroughly. This should resemble lettuce shreds when mixed.
  3. In another bowl, add a cup of coconut flakes and a small amount of orange food coloring. Toss with a fork to mix thoroughly. This should resemble cheese shreds when mixed.
  4. Take the half cup of cherry sour candies and cut each one in half or in quarters. These should resemble tiny tomato wedges when cut.
  5. Unwrap your Oatmeal Creme Pies and gently separate the two cookies of each pie. Scrap away some of the creme and set the creme aside.
  6. Carefully bend one cookie half to form a taco shell shape.
  7. Place a small amount of brownie crumbles in the bottom of the shell.
  8. Top the crumbles with some green coconut flakes.
  9. Top the green coconut flakes with some orange coconut flakes.
  10. In a piping bag, add the vanilla frosting. Create a line of frosting across the top of the assembled "taco". This should resemble sour cream.
  11. Lastly, place a few cherry candies onto the vanilla frosting to complete your dessert taco.
  12. Repeat steps 5 through 10 for each OCP cookie half!
  13. Add the dessert tacos to a festive tray and enjoy!
