• Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until edges of cheese piles are golden brown.

• Preheat your oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Freshly shred the cheese. Place your cheese in neat piles on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake for about 8 minutes, until all the individual shreds melt into one disc. Be careful not to let the cheese color too much.
• Once they are all melted, let them cool for 2 minutes on your baking sheet, then lift them onto paper towels to blot off any excess grease.
• To form the shells, lay them over a propped up utensil. (Or you can use anything in your kitchen, a wide bowl or saucepan could work too!) Set these aside to cool.
• To make the taco filling, brown the ground beef on high heat. Make a well in the center, add in the onion, jalapeños, garlic, and sprinkle in the taco seasoning packet. Stir to combine. Add water if you need it for a nice saucy filling.

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Generously brush butter onto both sides of the tortillas.
• Using a circular cookie cutter or a mason jar lid, cut the tortillas into small circles.
• Flip a 12-cup muffin tin over and place a cut-out piece of tortilla in the space between two cups, so that they make a mini taco shape. One muffin tin will fit 17 mini tacos.
• Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until just turning golden brown and crispy. (Times and temperatures may vary based on oven.) Make sure to check on them every couple of minutes to make sure they don't burn.
• Shred a rotisserie chicken, removing all bones and skin.
• Place shredded chicken in a large pan over medium-high heat and add salsa. Stir well to combine.
• Serve along with your favorite taco toppings.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the taco shells: Add the Doritos, flour, masa harina, nacho cheese powder, salt, and baking powder to a food processor. Process until the Doritos are broken down into fine crumbs. With the processor running, slowly pour in the melted lard and water. Continue processing until the dough comes together in a ball.
• Transfer the dough to a piece of plastic wrap. Shape into a disc, wrap tightly, then refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease 2-3 baking sheets with nonstick spray.
• Working with one dough ball at a time (keep the rest covered so they don't dry out), place between 2 sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Use a heavy skillet to press down evenly into a thin tortilla.
• Transfer the tortilla to the griddle and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
• Transfer the cooked tortilla to a large bowl lined with a kitchen towel and cover to keep warm while you cook the rest of the tortillas. The steam will help keep them moist and soft.
• Arrange the tortillas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 3 minutes, until crisp. While still hot, carefully fold the tortillas into taco holders to set the shell shape. Dust with more nacho cheese powder. Let cool while you make the filling.
• Add the onion and garlic to a food processor and drizzle with oil. Pulse until finely minced, scraping down the sides as needed.
• Transfer the onion mixture to a large pan and sweat over medium-low heat until soft and translucent, 5- 7 minutes.
• Add the ground beef, cumin, coriander, cayenne, garlic powder, granulated onion, paprika, chili powder, beef bouillon, MSG, sugar, and salt. Stir well to combine. Increase the heat to high and use a masher or whisk to break the meat into small pieces. Cook until the beef is golden brown and caramelized, about 5 minutes.
• Deglaze the pan with ½ cup of water, stirring to scrape up any browned bits. 12. Continue cooking for about 10 minutes, until the liquid reduces.
• In a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and remaining 1½ cups water. Add to the beef mixture and bring to a simmer. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Use an immersion blender to purée about a quarter of the meat in the pan, then stir everything together.
• To assemble, spoon the meat mixture into the taco shells. Top with sour cream, shredded lettuce, cheese, and diced tomatoes.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
