Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package (2 sheets) Puff pastry sheets
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Roll out the puff pastry sheets into an even layer if they are slightly uneven or thick.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated parmesan, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Spread an even layer of the cheese mixture over each puff pastry sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Roll each sheet tightly into a log, starting from one of the longer sides. Use gentle pressure to ensure the roll is compact but not overly squished.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.
Brush the seam of each roll with the egg wash to seal the edges. Chill the rolled pastry logs in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to firm them up.
Using a sharp knife, cut each log into 1/2-inch slices to create pinwheels. Place the pinwheels flat on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one to allow for puffing.
Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the pinwheels are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a serving plate.
Serve warm or at room temperature for a delicious and cheesy treat!
