Ingredients

• 2 pieces puff pastry sheets
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 piece egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheets, if necessary, to ensure they are evenly rectangular.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, mix together the mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and parsley until well combined.

Step 4

Spread an even layer of the cheese mixture over each puff pastry sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch border along the edges.

Step 5

Starting from one of the longer edges of the pastry sheet, roll it up tightly into a log. Repeat with the second puff pastry sheet.

Step 6

Using a sharp knife, slice each log into 1/2-inch thick pinwheels and place them flat on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each pinwheel.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of each pinwheel with the egg wash for a golden-brown finish.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the pinwheels are puffed and golden.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your cheesy pinwheels as a delicious appetizer or snack!
