Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 227 grams Cream cheese, softened
- 120 grams Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 egg Egg, beaten
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F), and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions and roll each sheet out slightly on a lightly floured surface.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread an even layer of the cheese mixture over one sheet of puff pastry, leaving a 1 cm (1/2 inch) border around the edges.
Carefully roll the puff pastry tightly into a log shape, starting from one of the longer sides. Repeat with the second sheet of puff pastry and remaining cheese mixture.
Using a sharp knife, slice each log into 1.5 cm (1/2 inch) thick pinwheels and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each pinwheel.
Brush the tops of the pinwheels lightly with the beaten egg to enhance browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pinwheels are puffed and golden brown.
Allow the pinwheels to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
