PUMPKIN-FILLED CRESCENT ROLLS
This is an Old World recipe derived from my grandmother, who didn't use traditional measuring cups. We figured out this recipe, which must date back to 1900 or earlier. Other fillings that work well are cranberry, peanut butter or lemon. -Gary Wanosky, North Ridgeville, Ohio
