Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup goat cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup pecans finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 large flour tortillas 10-inch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and goat cheese until smooth and creamy.
  2. Stir in the chopped cranberries, pecans, chives, honey, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Lay out one tortilla on a clean surface and spread about 1/4 of the cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface, leaving a 1/2-inch border at the edges.
  4. Starting from one end, roll the tortilla up tightly into a log shape. The tighter you roll, the prettier your pinwheels will be!
  5. Wrap the rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap, twisting the ends to seal. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  6. Refrigerate the wrapped rolls for at least 2 hours or overnight – this firms them up so they slice beautifully.
  7. When ready to serve, unwrap the rolls and use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 6 pinwheels, about 1-inch thick.
  8. Arrange pinwheels on a serving platter cut-side up so everyone can see those gorgeous swirls. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until party time!
