Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup whipped topping (or whipped cream)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for the cream cheese mixture)

Assorted fresh fruits (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, mango, banana)

Chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Taco Shells: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a dough forms.

    Shape the Tacos: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Divide the dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each). Flatten each ball into a round disc. Place the discs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a knife or a spatula to gently create a taco shell shape by pressing the center down and curving the edges slightly upwards.

      Bake the Taco Shells: Bake the taco-shaped cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.

        Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, whipped topping, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.

          Assemble the Pizza Tacos: Once the taco shells are completely cool, fill each with a generous dollop of the cream cheese mixture.

            Add the Fruits: Arrange your assorted fresh fruits on top of the cream cheese filling in a colorful pattern. You can mix and match your fruits based on seasonality and preference.

              Optional Drizzle: For an added touch, drizzle some chocolate syrup over the top of the fruit.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately for a crispy treat, or refrigerate for 30 minutes for a chilled option before serving.
