Pumpkin Cream Cheese Crescents
You are going to love these Pumpkin Cream Cheese Crescents! They are the perfect treat with a cup of tea on a beautiful Fall day.
You can even serve them for breakfast or brunch if you’re having overnight guests. Just recently, I made a recipe that did NOT call for the entire can of pumpkin puree. I put the extra pumpkin puree into a small container and placed it on a shelf in the back of the refrigerator.
A few days later I remembered that container and decided to try something new. I combined the pumpkin puree with some cream cheese and sugar. Next, I rolled the mixture up in refrigerator crescent dough.
If I was making these again, I would definitely double the recipe. That’s right, get two cans of crescent rolls! You’ll thank me that you doubled the recipe and your family will thank YOU for finding a new pumpkin recipe to add to the menu!

Helpful Cooking Tips
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before adding it to the mixing bowl.
- You also need to make sure you tuck the ends of the crescent rolls under so the pumpkin cheesecake mixture doesn’t leak out while baking.
- Cinnamon sugar is available at any grocery store.
- However, it’s very easy to make homemade by combining 1/2 cup sugar with 2 tablespoons cinnamon.
