  5. For the filling: Combine the softened butter and pumpkin in a small bowl and brush on the dough, all the way to the edges.
  6. Combine the cinnamon and sweetener in a small bowl and sprinkle on top of the butter. Top with chopped nuts
  7. Starting at one end roll your dough as tightly as you can into a log.
    Cut into 10 equal portions (roughly the width of two fingers)
  8. Spray a muffin tin lightly with cooking spray and place the rolls in the wells.
  9. Bake 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
  10. For the cream cheese icing: combine the cream cheese, heavy cream, sweetener and maple extract (if using) in a blender or food processor and mix until smooth.
    **Note: the icing is for a mildly sweet, thick frosting. If you prefer it sweeter or thinner just add additional ingredients as needed after taste testing.
