Provided by á-25138

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 tubes Pillsbury refrigerated crescent rolls.
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 to 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice, to taste
3 to 4 tablespoons sugar (granulated or powdered; adjust to taste if you want the filling sweeter)

Steps:

Roll each crescent roll out and cut lengthwise in 2. Beat the above ingredients together until fluffy and creamy and spread about one teaspoon of filling over each triangle of dough. Mix together 4 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice and roll each pumpkin pie croissant in it. Bake at 375°F for about 13-15 minutes - you want them to be lightly browned and the dough baked through. I use baking stones, so baking times may vary. These are sweet but not so-much-so - sublime little bites of pumpkin pie heaven that are easy and portable and the perfect addition to any fall celebration. Refrigerate leftover filling ... it is delicious on bagels or toast and it makes a great dip for cinnamon graham crackers, green apples and ginger snaps!

Tips:

For the best results, use fresh pumpkin purée. You can make your own by roasting a pumpkin and then puréeing it in a food processor, or you can use canned pumpkin purée.
If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
If you want a sweeter filling, you can add more sugar to taste. You can also add a dollop of maple syrup or honey to the filling before baking.
Be sure to let the croissants cool slightly before serving. This will help the filling to set and prevent it from running out.

Conclusion:

These mini pumpkin pie croissants are the perfect fall treat. They're easy to make and always a hit with friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet and seasonal snack, give these croissants a try!
