Update #1: Recreate the Klondike Choco Taco at home
Choco Tacos were discontinued in 2022, and I have been craving them ever since. I purchased pizzelles from Bova’s Bakery in the North End to try to make the shell.
Update #2: Finished the taco shell
25% completeOnce they were softened by the microwave and formed, they hardened back up and held their shape very well
Update #3: Folding the shells
45% completeMicrowave the shells covered in wet paper towels to fold them. Blow on them to cool them
Looking Back: Less wet paper towels work best. 25 seconds in the microwave
Update #4: Filled with ice cream
65% completeThe softer the ice cream the better, but you have to work fast because it’s a fine line between frozen and liquid
Update #5: Filling with ice cream and dipping in chocolate
75% completeI used chocolate chips for cookies and the chocolate was too hard to dip. Need a better kind next time
Challenges Overcome: Added milk to the chocolate to soften it. It made dipping possible
Looking Back: Get the right chocolate next time
Update #6: Finished product!
100% completeAfter freezing again, this is how they came out, I would say this was definitely a success! They tasted amazing if I may say so myself!
