  • Mixing bowls
  • - Hand mixer or whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • #### For the Pumpkin Filling:
  • - 1/2 cup 120g pumpkin puree
  • - 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • - 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • - 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • #### For the Cream Cheese Filling:
  • - 4 oz 113g cream cheese, softened
  • - 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • - 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • #### Additional Ingredients:
  • - 1 can 8 oz refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • - 1 tbsp butter melted (optional, for brushing)
  • - 1 tbsp granulated sugar mixed with 1/4 tsp cinnamon for topping

Instructions
 

  • **Preheat Oven:** Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • **Prepare Pumpkin Filling:** In a mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Mix until smooth.
  • **Prepare Cream Cheese Filling:** In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy.
  • **Roll Out Crescent Dough:** Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.
  • **Add Fillings:** Spread a thin layer of cream cheese filling onto each crescent triangle, followed by a small amount of pumpkin filling. Be careful not to overfill to prevent leaking during baking.
  • **Roll and Shape:** Starting at the wide end of the triangle, roll up the dough towards the point to form a crescent shape. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
  • **Brush and Sprinkle:** (Optional) Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  • **Bake:** Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.
  • **Cool and Serve:** Allow the crescent rolls to cool slightly before serving.
