Pumpkin Cheesecake Crescent Rolls
Ooooh weee you guys are in for a treat today.
I mean, I figured I owed it to you for the radio silence over here all week.
Last week was a leeeetle crazy with me adjusting to going back to work and then on Friday we took our 3 month old on a plane and flew across the country to California. Which makes complete sense to do, right?
The whole trip actually went a thousand times better than I had anticipated (no airplane meltdowns...yay!) and it wasn't just a trip full of survival mode, we actually had a really great time.
But yes, this treat I have for you. Not only is it pumpkin (!!!!) but it's quick, easy, and can be eaten pretty much any time of the day. Breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner, second dinner, dessert. There's no wrong time of day to eat crescent rolls stuffed with pumpkin cheesecake and brushed with butter and cinnamon sugar. Fact.
These little guys are definitely best eaten right away, warm from the oven. The filling recipe makes enough filling for approximately 16 crescent rolls, so unless you're feeding a family of 8 (maybe you are!), you're probably going to have leftovers.
This is where I have your solution. Save the leftover filling and unbaked crescent roll can so you can make more pumpkin cheesecake crescent rolls tomorrow. Or in two hours. You're gonna want to.
Ingredients
- 2 8 oz can crescent rolls
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teasopoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ginger
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions

- Line large baking sheet with parchment paper, or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- In mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and sugar until well combined.
- Add pumpkin and spices, beating until well combined.
- Separate crescent roll dough into 8 triangles.
- Spoon approximately 1 ½ tablespoons in the middle of each triangle.
- Roll crescent roll, starting on wide end.
- Place crescent rolls onto baking sheet.
- Combine remaining sugar and cinnamon in small bowl.
- Brush each crescent roll with melted butter, and then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Bake in preheated oven for 11-13 minutes, until golden brown.
- Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!
