Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Take a small, oblong oven-safe dish and gently press a tortilla inside it so it forms a little cup. Brush the inside with melted butter and sprinkle a bit of cinnamon sugar over it. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until it’s nice and crispy. When it’s done, carefully lift the taco cup out and let it cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, spoon in a couple of scoops of ice cream side by side. Lay banana halves on either side of the ice cream, then add diced strawberries on one scoop and pineapple pieces on the other. Finish it off with a dollop of whipped cream in the middle, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and a sprinkle of walnuts on top. Enjoy!
