I saved this Pillsbury Bake Off recipe that won a million dollar
and added it to my recipe file. I can
see why it won a million dollars. It is delicious and so
original. It is also simple because you
are using Pillsbury dough sheets. I thought I would pass it on to you if you
have not seen it so you can make it for your family. I have not made any changes
in it because I don't think you can improve on a million dollar winner.
4 tablespoons butter
2 packages (3 oz each) cream cheese
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup sugar
5 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/3 cup pecans, finely chopped
2 cans Pillsbury Crescent Recipe Creations® refrigerated
seamless dough sheet
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/8 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons Hershey’s caramel syrup
4 tablespoons cinnamon sugar
Heat oven to 375°F. Brush
2 large cookie sheets with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter.
In large bowl, beat cream cheese and pumpkin with electric
mixer on medium speed about 1 minute or until smooth. Add egg yolk, vanilla,
sugar, 3 tablespoons of the flour and pumpkin pie spice; beat on low speed
until blended. Reserve 4 teaspoons of the pecans; set aside. Stir remaining
pecans into pumpkin mixture.
Lightly sprinkle work surface with 1 tablespoon of the
flour. Unroll 1 can of dough on floured surface with 1 short side facing you.
Press dough into 14×12-inch rectangle. With paring knife, lightly score the
dough in half horizontally. Lightly score bottom half of dough into 12 squares
(3×2 1/4-inch each). Spoon heaping tablespoon of the pumpkin filling onto
center of each square. Gently lift and position unscored half of dough over
filling. Starting at the top folded edge, press handle of wooden spoon firmly
between mounds and along edges of pumpkin filling to seal. Using toothpick,
poke small hole in top of each ravioli. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife,
cut between each ravioli; place 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Repeat with
remaining 1 tablespoon flour, dough sheet and filling. Brush ravioli with
remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter.
Bake 9 to 14 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat whipping cream and salt with
electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Beat in 2 tablespoons of
the caramel syrup until stiff peaks form. Transfer to serving bowl; cover and
refrigerate.
Remove ravioli from oven. Sprinkle ravioli with 2
tablespoons cinnamon sugar; turn. Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon sugar.
To serve, place 2 ravioli on each of 12 dessert plates.
Drizzle each serving with scant teaspoon of the caramel syrup; sprinkle with
reserved chopped pecans. With spoon, swirl remaining 1 tablespoon caramel syrup
into bowl of whipped cream. Serve warm ravioli with whipped cream.
I still have a few more pumpkin recipes in my file. Tomorrows will be simple because it calls for puffed pastry, one of my favorite ingredients.
Be happy and may God bless you and yours.
