Although Halloween treats are typically served as desserts, we love the excuse to start the day off sweet provided by these delectable Pumpkin Five-Spice Sweet Rolls.

As if the sweet roll weren't intrinsically indulgent enough, blogger Rachel of Coconut & Lime updated the treat for fall, using pureed pumpkin as a base and Chinese five-spice as an unexpected yet pleasantly subtle filling. Pictured here, the seasonal bonne bouche is positively delectable, with a hint of orange revealing its autumnal base, a generous helping of gooey cream-cheese frosting, and -- one can only imagine -- a springy, moist texture that will melt in your mouth.

If you can afford yourself some autumnal decadence, go ahead and bake up a batch.
