Method
- In a large bowl, combine warmed milk, yeast, and 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Whisk in pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, vanilla, remaining sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gradually mix in flour and salt until a soft dough forms.
- Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Roll dough into a 12x18-inch rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, and ginger. Tightly roll into a log and cut into 12 equal slices.
- Arrange rolls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes until puffy. Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. While warm, drizzle with cream cheese glaze made by beating all glaze ingredients until smooth.
