Provided by Ashly1021

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 5m

Yield 12-16 pinwheels, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces whipped cream cheese
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup green onion, chopped
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped and toasted
salt and pepper
4 large tortillas

Steps:

  • Mix all the ingredients together (except the tortillas) until well blended.
  • Spread about 1/3 cup of the mixture into a tortilla and roll shut in plastic wrap.
  • Chill for a few hours. Then cut and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Selecting the Perfect Blue Cheese: Opt for a flavorful yet mild blue cheese like Gorgonzola Dolce or Cambozola. These cheeses provide a creamy texture and a balanced flavor profile.
  • Preparing the Dough: To ensure the pinwheels hold their shape during baking, use a combination of all-purpose flour and bread flour. The bread flour adds elasticity and structure to the dough.
  • Chilling the Dough: After mixing the dough, wrap it tightly and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This step allows the dough to rest, making it easier to work with and preventing it from becoming too sticky.
  • Rolling and Filling: Use a lightly floured surface to roll out the dough into a thin sheet. Spread the blue cheese mixture evenly, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll the dough tightly, starting from one of the long sides, and seal the edges.
  • Slicing and Baking: Using a sharp knife, cut the dough roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven until golden brown.
  • Serving Suggestions: Blue cheese pinwheels are best served warm or at room temperature. Accompany them with a side of your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing. They make a great appetizer or snack for parties and gatherings.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese pinwheels are a delightful and versatile appetizer that combines the bold flavor of blue cheese with the flaky texture of puff pastry.
