Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and cut tortillas into rounds using a cookie cutter.
  2. Mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon on a plate.
  3. Poke each tortilla round a few times with a fork to prevent air bubbles.
  4. Brush one side of a tortilla round with melted butter, dip it into cinnamon sugar, then flip and coat the other side.
  5. Drape coated tortilla rounds over an upside-down muffin tin to form taco shells.
  6. Bake for about 8-11 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
  7. While the shells cool, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  8. In another bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth, then add pumpkin puree, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice, mixing until creamy.
  9. Spoon or pipe the pumpkin filling into cooled taco shells, top with whipped cream, and garnish with chopped pecans.
