Dried cherries are the sweet surprise alongside the savory ingredients in these delightfully different spirals. I roll up the tortillas and pop them in the fridge well before party time, and then I just slice and serve. -Kate Dampier, Quail Valley, California

HAM PINWHEELS



Ham Pinwheels image

This is my mom's recipe and it's always a hit at parties and get-togethers. Even the kids love will love these pinwheels!

Provided by Mystia

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 64 pinwheels, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (8 ounce) brick cream cheese (softened)
16 ounces sour cream
1 (1 ounce) packet packet Hidden Valley Ranch dip (dry)
1 lb deli ham, sliced thin but not shaved (not honey ham!)
1 (14 ounce) package azteca flour tortillas (8 large ones per pack, in the refrigerator section)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese, sour cream and dry ranch dip mix.
  • Beat until no lumps remain.
  • Put a very thin layer of the cheese mixture on a tortilla, being sure not to go all the way to the edge.
  • Place slices of ham on top (I always put one piece in the middle and then cut other pieces to fit around the edges), again being careful not to go all the way to the edge.
  • Start tightly rolling the tortilla. Try to keep everything inside so the cheese mixture and ham don't come out.
  • Roll up tightly in plastic wrap and place in the fridge or freezer.
  • Repeat steps 3 through 7 until you run out of ingredients.
  • When you're ready to serve, cut the long rolls into small, round pinwheels. I was able to get 8 good pinwheels per long roll (the endpieces are fine to nibble on but they don't make a pretty presentation). If you freeze the rolls for a little while rather than refrigerate them, it makes cutting easier and presentation nicer. I didn't freeze the ones in my picture, so they were messy and misshapen but still very yummy! ENJOY!
