Pumpkin-walnut rolls
Description
The recipe won't take much time. However, the baking process is lengthy and requires attention, as the dough, filling, and icing are prepared separately. Rolls should be served after cooling and the icing has set. The icing can be made with cream cheese or powdered sugar. Serve with tea or coffee.
