Take-out Tuesday, Pumpkin Walnut Spirals
These little sweet & savory bites are perfect
for any occasion this Fall season
Breakfast, Brunch, luncheon, dinner, dessert…
They are light, not too sweet, delicious
and small enough not to be sinful~
These rolls would be great for Thanksgiving breakfast
The best part about these spiral bites of nutty pumpkin
is that they are super quick to make with crescent roll dough,
Pumpkin Pie filling, cream cheese, butter, sugar and nuts
Roll out the dough into 1 large rectangle
and pinch the perforations to seal if necessary
Spread evenly with a thin layer of cream cheese
Sprinkle sugar lightly over cream cheese,
You can use white or brown sugar
Then spread a thin layer of Pumpkin Pie Filling over dough
Starting with one of the long sides, carefully roll the dough into a log
You will end up with a big gooey seam on top
This is where I wished I had done this on a piece of parchment paper,
{whoops}
so I could put in it the fridge to chill
I got out baking mat and eased the roll onto it
Place the rolled dough into the freezer for 10 minutes
or cover and refrigerate for several hours,
to make it easier to handle,
then slice the log into 16 pieces
Begin at the center and cut in half
Then cut the halves into 1/4s and then cut the 1/4s in half again
and you will have 16 even spiral slices
Place the slices in a greased glass pie pan, cut side down
Sprinkle with chopped walnuts
then sprinkle lightly with brown sugar
Cut 2 Tablespoons of butter into 16 pieces
and place one piece on top of each roll
The butter imparts a smooth flavor finish
Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes,
but start checking them near the end to see if they’re done
They need to get pretty brown to insure the insides get cooked

These sound so good. Now what will you do with the extra pie filling? BTW, I had some pumpkin pie ice cream at Braums last night. I was skeptical, but it was actually delicious if you can get past the idea of cold ice cream on a cold evening.🤣🍦
Pumpkin ice cream, wow, I’ve never seen that before!
