Method
 

Preparing the Tacos
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and gather your equipment.
  2. Cut the flour tortillas into rounds of about 4 to 4.5 inches in diameter. Puncture each round with a fork to prevent puffing.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
  4. Melt the butter and brush it lightly over each tortilla round, then sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  5. Arrange the coated tortilla rounds between the cups of an upside-down muffin tin and bake for about 10 minutes.
  6. In a bowl, beat heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  7. In another bowl, beat cream cheese and remaining powdered sugar until smooth, then mix in pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice.
  8. Once shells are slightly cooled, fill them with the pumpkin filling and top with whipped cream and pecans.
  9. Serve immediately for the best experience.
