  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
– ½ cup pumpkin puree

– ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
– Green candy or pretzel sticks (for stems)

Instructions

Creating Crescent Pumpkins: Spooktacular Cream Cheese & Pumpkin Pie Filling Treats can be both straightforward and fun. Follow these steps for a delightful treat:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet with cooking spray or parchment paper.
2. Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth and combined. Set aside.
3. Roll Dough: Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it on a clean surface. Separate the dough into triangles.
4. Form Pumpkins: Place a small spoonful of pumpkin filling at the wide end of each triangle. Carefully roll the dough from the wide end to the narrow end, ensuring the filling stays tucked inside.
5. Shape Pumpkins: Using your hands, shape the rolled dough into a pumpkin form, pinching it to create a slight indentation in the center for a more rounded pumpkin shape.
6. Bake: Arrange the shaped pumpkin treats on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Cool: Once baked, remove from the oven and let the Crescent Pumpkins cool on a wire rack.
8. Add Stems: After cooling, insert green candy or pretzel sticks into the top of each Crescent Pumpkin to resemble stems.
9. Serve: Arrange the Crescent Pumpkins on a platter and get ready to enjoy!

With these easy steps, you’ll have spooktacular treats that everyone will love!
