Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, shredded mozzarella, Parmesan, kosher salt, and black pepper; mix until well incorporated. Cover and chill the filling for about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut each biscuit into 16 small pieces, roll into balls, and flatten into discs about 3½ to 4 inches wide.
- Place one tablespoon of the chilled filling in the center of each dough round and seal tightly by pinching the edges together.
- Using kitchen twine, tie each filled dough ball several times to create sections resembling a pumpkin.
- Arrange the tied dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for approximately 15 minutes until golden brown.
- Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic, chopped parsley, and paprika; stir until well mixed.
- Once baked, cut and remove the twine, then brush the buttery garlic mixture over the tops. Optionally, insert a pretzel stick into each pumpkin and serve warm with marinara.

Notes
Ensure tight seals when filling the dough to prevent leaks. Chill before baking to maintain shape and texture.
