Instructions
- Prepare the dough by combining warm water and yeast in a small bowl until foamy.
- In a large bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, browned butter, egg, dry milk powder, salt, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice. Add the yeast mixture and stir well.
- Gradually add flour until a soft dough forms; knead on a floured surface for 5–7 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
- Roll out the risen dough into a rectangle, spread with browned butter, sprinkle brown sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice evenly over the surface. Roll tightly and slice into portions.
- Place on a lined baking sheet to rise again for 30 minutes before baking at 350°F (175°C) for 25–27 minutes until golden.
- While baking, prepare the frosting by beating cream cheese and browned butter until creamy; mix in vanilla extract and heavy cream, then gradually add confectioners sugar until smooth.
- Once rolls are baked and slightly cooled, frost generously before serving warm.
