Steps to make the tacos:

To make the apple pie filling:

1. Peel and dice the apples and sit them to the side in a dish.
2. Heat a pan to medium heat, add the water and cornstarch and whisk together.
   
3. Add the butter to the pan and melt.
4. Then add the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg and whisk together until blended.  
5. Add the apples and cook for approximately 10 minutes or until the apples soften.
6. Once the apples have softened, add the vanilla and mix together.
7. Remove the mixture from the heat and allow it to cool at room temperature.

To make the cheesecake filling:

1. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract until blended and the mixture thickens- approximately two minutes.
2. Place the filling in a piping bag and place it in the refrigerator while preparing the tortillas.

To make the tortillas:

1. In a pan, heat one inch of oil on medium heat.
2. Combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon on a plate and sit it to the side.
3. Place the tortillas in the oil and fry for 10-15 seconds frying them one at a time. Place the tortilla in the oil, fold it in half and fry until golden brown.
4. Once brown, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-covered dish for a few seconds then immediately place the tortillas in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Sprinkle the tortillas on the inside and out with the mixture.
5. Place the tortillas on an upside-down muffin tin.

Steps to build the tacos: 

1. Fill the taco shell with your desired amount of cheesecake filling.
2. Top the filling with your desired amount of apple pie filling.
3. Serve and enjoy!

The tacos are best served the first day; however, they can also be placed in the refrigerator in an airtight container for a few days.

I removed them from the refrigerator about 15-20 minutes prior to eating them just so they weren't super cold...talking about delicious!
