These cookies are great! I like to freeze mine till I'm ready to bake, just thaw for 5 minutes before slicing.

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup butter
¾ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 egg
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 (1 ounce) square semisweet chocolate

Steps:

  • Cream the butter or margarine with the sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg.
  • Melt chocolate chips over a double boiler or in a bowl in a microwave oven. Stir until smooth. Let cool. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add flour mixture to the creamed mixture and stir well. Divide dough in half. To one half add the melted chocolate and stir until well combined.
  • To Make Pinwheels: On waxed paper roll out each half of the dough into 12x10 inch rectangle. Brush one layer with milk and place the other layer on top. Peel off waxed paper and roll up like a jelly roll. Chill dough thoroughly.
  • To Make Half and Half: Make two rolls, 2 inches thick. One plain and one chocolate. Wrap in waxed paper and chill. Cut each roll in half lengthwise. Brush cut edges with milk. Press plain and chocolate halves together to make rolls. Wrap in waxed paper and chill again.
  • Slice cookies thinly and bake in a preheated 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) oven for 8 to 10 minutes

These pinwheels are a waste of time and ingredients. They're not worth the effort.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pinwheels turned out a mess. The pastry was too thick and the chocolate filling was too runny.

These pinwheels are a bit too dry for my taste. I think they would be better with a more moist filling.

These pinwheels are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good. The chocolate is rich and creamy, and the pastry is flaky and buttery.

I'm not a fan of the cream cheese filling, but these pinwheels are still delicious. The chocolate is rich and decadent, and the pastry is flaky and buttery.

These pinwheels are a great way to use up leftover puff pastry. They're also a great make-ahead snack or dessert.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, but these pinwheels were surprisingly good. The filling is rich and creamy, and the chocolate is just the right amount of sweetness.
