7. After the first frozen shell is pretty sturdy, pull it out and drizzle inside with this (not

burning hot) chocolate syrup. A paintbrush comes in handy here. Throw syruped shells

back into the freezer so chocolate can firm up.

8. Wait at least five minutes before pulling them out. Delicately stuff them with ice

cream, then return them to the freezer for another ten minutes of firming-up.

9. Remove proto-Choco Tacos and drizzle them with extra syrup. Crush peanuts and

hrow those on top too.

0. Happiness. Was that the ice cream truck jingle sound outside? Psh.

Unnecessary.

Why The Trial? Are you trying to say something about the difficulty of making

these tacos?

Adam Kuban at 2:49PM on 02/24/09

Or shouldn't the byline to your story simply be "E."?

bobbob at 2:54PM on 02/24/09

Sorry, but did this chick smoke something before she decided to make these

things? I mean, I love chocolate, peanuts and ice cream just as much as the next

girl but....this just seems excessive. ; ) But they do look good.

arm1970 at 2:59PM on 02/24/09

Holy monkey bars-I forgot about these! I ate them 3 time a week in graduate

school. I will give this a shot. party anyone?

savorthethyme at 3:14PM on 02/24/09

My local Home Depot has an ice cream vending machine that contains Choco

Tacos. Grocery store? No. Home Depot? Yes.

Spanno at 3:34PM on 02/24/09

These look great but are waaay too time intensive. I'd be just as happy with sitting

down to a "Tin Roof Sundae", made with essentially the same stuff (minus the

shell) and I'd have a lot more time to sit and enjoy it...

yeah. I'm lazy.

I've made similar but using pizzeles as the shell, and toasted almonds rather than

peanuts. I think that was faster than doing crepes and all those freezing steps. No

books involved either. :D

I have not had one in ages...they had them next to the frozen Snickers and Dum-

Dums in college canteen machines.

i believe taco johns sells them...mmmm potato oles!

also, if you make me one of these, i will clean your freezer. sorry, i am an ahole

hahaha

hookrilla at 4:24PM on 02/24/09

For some reason my neighborhood still has an ice cream truck, despite the factthat it's been raining like crazy here and there's not a whole lot of children in our

'hood. The ice cream truck is neon blue, the woman inside is a foxy Australian,

and yes, she has chaco tacos. I guess I'm just lucky.

She also still sells grab bags, does anyone remember those? They're circus-

themed paper bags and they have a couple of candies inside and a set a wax lips?

They're AWESOME.

PumpkinBear at 5:06PM on 02/24/09

I ran a hot dog stand this summer and sold ice cream bars and novelties. These, I

couldn't get. Torqued me off!

@arm1970, some of us don't worry about it. It's called personal taste.

LunaPierCook at 5:47PM on 02/24/09

roboppy at 6:07PM on 02/24/09

oh dear god i want one NOW.

luxie at 6:27PM on 02/24/09

It seems you could add some cocoa powder to the crepe batter, no?

beano at 7:12PM on 02/24/09

Absolutely brilliant.

i am seriously considering making these right now. heh.

I agree with Juliebugsmama - love me some tin roof sundae! Plus you can serve it

in a waffle cone and there you have it! I've never had one of these before so I guessI don't know what I'm missing. I've seen this in the grocery store and also at home

depot. I'll have to give them a try :)

ddvierra68 at 12:29PM on 02/25/09

Oh for the days of the Choco Taco at Taco Bell.

I find them at the local Walgreens these days. As a matter of fact, as soon as I'm

over my current bout of a jaw-pain-inducing ear infection, I think I'll have one.

mahlookma at 3:58PM on 02/25/09

my local taco bell sell's these. i love them, to bad i gave up taco bell for lent. good

thing it's only 40 days.

dearrie at 4:36PM on 02/25/09

love them, never ate one, but i know i'd love 'em.....

what a novelty dessert.... i'm gonna have to make these next time i make my

tamale pie for company.....

God Bless America!

Luckily, my local Skyline Chili has a Good Humor freezer with Choco Tacos!! Chili

and ice cream, what could be better!?!?!I like the idea of using books as molds. You get a larger bottom so they are easier

to fill and stand on their own. However, I would first wrap the book in non -stick foil

first. Easier to remove and way more sanitary!!

Thanks for sharing.

muzzlet at 12:14PM on 02/28/09

omg i forgot all about Choco Tacos! Thank you for reminding me a bout these!

Yum. Rivaled only by a chocolate eclair good humor bar.

sanitary, schmanitary... they look great!

Here's a hint for stuffing the 'shells' a little easier: put that really frozen tub of ice

cream into the microwave for 30 seconds(+/-). Just so it gets soft enough to dump

out the whole thing onto the cutting board or plate and cut it in half, lengthwise.

Now slice each half into perfect half-moons and drop into your choco taco.

nightmoon at 8:50PM on 03/01/09

these will be great for our house warming in the next month or to...

You can also put them over a taco shell holder...

britewally at 9:23PM on 03/02/09

@Erin,

Great work. Big fan of the choco taco. Is this your #1 ice cream truck delicacy?

Did the "taco shells" stay crispy while you were eating them?

NYC Food Guy at 3:49AM on 03/06/09

I just made some coconut chewy cookies, and with a little more liquid i bet I could

make a coconut-chewy taco shell...i'm getting a little drooly thinking about it.

is it possible to put ice cream in something like a caulking gun?

mmmmmm ice cream caulking gun...

garth at 2:21PM on 03/06/09

@NYC Food Guy: We ate them so fast, I cannot supply you with this info. And

Big Sticks were always my favorite!

Erin Zimmer at 3:45PM on 03/06/09

Oh, wow! What a fantastic idea. I haven't had a Choco Taco in years! Definitely

going to have to try this. Thanks for sharing Erin!

b_sweens at 7:41PM on 04/04/09

Wow. Committed is right, but I feel like the Lifehacker writer overestimated the

amount of work it takes. Must not cook much.

cothebadger at 6:41AM on 04/05/09

It's been a long, LONG time since i've had a choco taco. And i'll tell you why:

Klondike bars (and everything made by klondike) have NO real chocolate. I refuse

to eat products that only have a "chocolate flavored coating". I even heard that the

FDA tried to redefine the definition of chocolate to include these vegetable based

concoctions to be included. tsk, tsk.

As a child, i remember these choco tacos as so delicious, but when i came

across them again, i was severely disapointed by the lack of real chocolate taste.

Also, as a slight criticism of the recipe, isn't the shell suppossed to be a waffle

cone and not a crepe? (though i do love crepes)

arock at 10:05AM on 04/05/09

Well fist off great idea and thank you for sharing. I am making these as a surprise

for my girlfriend Wendella. I followed the recipe as exactly as stated. This provided

me with 5 normal shells and one slightly smaller shell. So I ended up with 6 rather

than 12 as stated.

For the books and sanitary reasons I cleaned the book's covers with Windex

(spraying the Windex on the paper towel first) then proceeded to wipe it off with a

lightly damp paper towel. You should only end up using 2 books, I cleaned 12.

It appears I might have a bit excess in chocolate syrup. Though that is not a bad

thing as I will use that extra to make it extra chocolaty. I am currently waiting for

the ice cream to thicken then I will add the last layer of chocolate and nuts. Rather

than painting my shells as I did not have a brush to use that did not have paint on

it. I simply dipped my shells in then put them on a cooking pan that would fit in the

fridge.

I crushed my nuts XD, in a bowl with a wooden spoon until the bowl was void oflarge pieces. The only variant I did was to add 1 extra spoon of coco powder to the

syrup mix as well as I have added drizzled chocolate before adding the crushed

peanuts.

If I can make this you can too, trust me. I just finished topping my shells I am

eager to present them tonight for dinner and some action booyah. All in all this

has taken me about 2hrs with clean up time.

Tips:

1) Time each crepe/shell with the stove timer at around 2min use your eye though.

With flipping I found out no guts no glory do not try do ( no room for mistakes).

2) Crush the peanuts in a bowl with a wooden spoon.3) Use a baking pan to sturdy the shells.

4) Dip the shells rather than painting if you do not have a brush.

Use waxed paper over book "mold"? At least do something other than saying "It'stoo complicated"!

This just proves to me what I already suspected. Home Depot fucking ROCKS.

Those look yummy! For those of you who don't want to make your own choco

tacos and can't find them in the store, go for an ice cream drumstick. All of the

same ingredients, just a different shape.
