Ingredients

12-count package Hawaiian sweet dinner rolls

9 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided, softened to room temp; do not melt!)

2/3 cup soft light brown sugar (gently packed)

1 tablespoon canned pumpkin

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

1/8 teaspoon salt

2 ounces cream cheese (softened, see note 1)

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened, see note 2)

2 tablespoons canned pumpkin

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions

Prep Pan & Oven

Grease a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray. Spread 1 tablespoon softened butter across the base (I like to use a plastic bag on my hand as a mitt). Preheat oven to 350°F.

Make Filling

In a medium bowl, combine 8 tablespoons butter (1 stick), brown sugar, pumpkin purée, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Beat with a hand mixer until thick and smooth.

Assemble Rolls

Slice the entire slab of rolls in half horizontally, keeping individual rolls attached. Place the bottom half in the prepared pan. Spread just under half the filling evenly across it. Top with the other half of the rolls. Spread the remaining filling over the top and sides of the rolls, covering all surfaces except the bottom.

Bake for 13–15 minutes, or until the rolls are lightly golden on top.

Glaze

Make Glaze

While the rolls bake, beat the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Beat again until smooth and creamy.

Finish & Serve

Add Glaze

Remove rolls from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Spoon glaze generously over the top, letting it drip into the crevices. If desired, add a second layer of glaze once cooled slightly. Enjoy warm!
