Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare tortilla rounds while the oven warms.
  2. Cut 3-4 rounds from each flour tortilla and poke holes in each round to prevent air bubbles while baking.
  3. Brush each tortilla round with melted butter and dip into a mixture of granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  4. Invert a muffin tin and place the coated tortilla rounds between the muffin cups. Bake for about 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Beat until stiff peaks form.
  6. Beat together cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in pumpkin puree, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice.
  7. Assemble tacos by filling shells with pumpkin filling, topping with whipped cream and garnishing with pecans.
