I did change one thing from the original recipe. Instead of stuffing the bread with plain cream cheese, I added 3 – 4 Tbsp sugar into the cream cheese and 1 tsp of vanilla extract so that the filling tastes more like cheesecake. 

How To Decorate The Pumpkin Dinner Rolls As Jack-o’lantern

Just like we dress-up in costume on Halloween, the dinner rolls need transformations, right? With some chocolate, the transformation is easy peasy.

  1. Melt some pieces of chocolate in a microwave (About a half of regular chocolate bar)
  2. Pour the melted chocolate into a small piping bag
  3. Start drawing fun faces!

I shared this bread with my family, and they were such a hit! Plus, in case you are getting sick of sugary Halloween candies, this semi-sweet bread is a perfect change.

I hope you enjoy the pumpkin bread as much as I did! Happy Halloween<3
