Method
Prep and preheat
- Preheat the oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
- Set out the softened cream cheese so it blends smoothly.
Make pumpkin cream cheese filling
- Beat the cream cheese with pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and vanilla until smooth and thick.
Assemble mini rolls
- Separate the crescent roll dough into triangles, keeping them spaced on the baking sheet.
- Place 1 teaspoon of pumpkin filling on the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll each triangle from the wide end to the point so the filling stays centered and the tip tucks under slightly.
- Brush the tops with melted butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake and glaze
- Bake at 375F for 12-15 minutes, until the mini crescent rolls are golden at the edges.
- Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and cinnamon into a smooth glaze, then drizzle over the rolls while warm as a thin coating.
Notes
For the smoothest filling, use fully softened cream cheese so there are no lumps. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days; rewarm in a 325F oven for 5-7 minutes. Freeze baked rolls (glaze after thawing for best texture) for up to 2 months. For a dairy-light swap, use cream cheese and milk alternatives that melt well, and expect a slightly softer filling.
