  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Unroll the crescent roll dough and pinch the seams together to form one large sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together canned pumpkin, melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until smooth.
  • Spread a thin layer of the pumpkin filling evenly over the dough. Unroll the second can of dough, place it on top, and spread another thin layer of pumpkin filling over the top sheet.
  • Starting from a short end, roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 6-7 even slices.
