Description
A cozy crowd-pleaser featuring a creamy spinach dip wrapped in flaky puff pastry, perfect for gatherings or as a delightful snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bag frozen chopped spinach (10 oz), thawed and squeezed dry
- 1 block cream cheese (8 oz), left out to soften
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed but still cold
- 1 egg, for brushing
Instructions
- Grab a bowl and throw in the softened cream cheese, grated Parmesan, mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is nicely combined.
- Now, take that thawed spinach and squeeze out every last drop of moisture. Toss the drained spinach into the cream cheese mixture and stir until everything looks beautifully even.
- Flour your counter lightly, roll out the puff pastry sheet, and spread the creamy spinach mixture evenly on top, making sure to leave one long side empty to seal later. Now, roll it up tightly.
- Wrap the rolled log in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
- Turn your oven on to 400°F while you wait.
- Once the time is up, take the log out and slice it into half-inch rounds. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Beat the egg with a splash of water and brush this mixture on top of each pinwheel.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Enjoy!
