Ingredients
  

  • BUBBL’R blood orange mingl’r
  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. fine sea salt
  • 1 tbsp. granulated cane sugar
  • 1 cup cold butter cubed
  • 6-8 tbsp. cold water
  • 4 oz. cream cheese
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp. granulated cane sugar
  • ½ tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ tbsp. flour
  • pumpkin shaped cookie cutters
  • ⅓ cup granulated cane sugar for topping
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon for topping

Instructions
 

  • In a food processor, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and cubed butter. Pulse until crumb-like texture.
  • Add 4 tablespoons of cold water and pulse 3 times. Add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
  • Press into an 8” disc and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge at least 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 400F. Line a large baking pan with parchment paper.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, add the cream cheese, sugars, pumpkin pie spice, and pumpkin puree. Mix until smooth, then whisk in the flour.
  • Simmer for 6-8 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat to cool to room temperature. 
  • Roll out the chilled pie crust to ⅛” thick.
  • Use a circular or pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter to make an even number of individual cut-outs. Lightly knead and re-roll out scrap pieces as needed to make the most amount of pop tarts.
  • On half of the cut-outs, add a generous spoonful of the pumpkin filling in the centers. Cover with the remaining half of the cut-outs, then pinch the edges together using a fork.
  • Brush with an egg wash, then create 2-3 small slits in each pop tart.
  • In a small bowl, mix the remaining sugar and ground cinnamon to sprinkle on top of the pop tarts.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden on top.
  • Enjoy with BUBBL’R blood orange ming’r for a complimentary drink!
