Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and allow to cool slightly, then finely chop. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, stir together the cream cheese and scallions. Season with salt and pepper.
- Unfold the pastry sheets on a lightly floured work surface. Lightly roll each piece of pastry into a 10-inch square. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of each piece of pastry, leaving a slight border around the edges. Sprinkle the Cheddar and bacon in an even layer over the top of the cream cheese mixture. Tightly roll each pastry sheet into a log (jelly roll style), then pinch the seam closed and place seam-side down on the work surface.
- Using a sharp knife, cut both logs crosswise into 12 pinwheels each, approximately 1 inch thick. Transfer 12 pinwheels to each prepared baking sheet, spiral-side up. In a small bowl, whisk the egg and 1 tablespoon water until combined to make an egg wash. Brush the tops and sides of the pinwheels with the egg wash.
- Bake the pinwheels until puffed and golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:
- Use high-quality bacon for the best flavor. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good amount of marbling.
- If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a glass to roll out the dough.
- Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and will make it easier to work with.
- Don't overfill the pinwheels with the filling. Otherwise, they will be difficult to roll up and may burst open when baking.
- Bake the pinwheels until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
