Pumpkin Shaped Rolls

  • 12 Rhodes Yeast Dinner Rolls or 12 Rhodes Texas Rolls, thawed but still cold
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 12 pecan pieces, for stems

Directions

Shape each dinner or Texas roll into a slightly flat ball.

Using scissors, make 6 to 8 cuts, equally spaced, around the outside of each ball about 1/2- inch deep.

Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke a deep hole into the top of each pumpkin shaped roll.

Place on a sprayed baking sheet and cover with sprayed plastic wrap. Allow to rise until almost double.

Remove wrap and re-poke stem hole.

Bake at 350 degrees F 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with butter. Insert pecan pieces into pumpkin rolls for stems.
