Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry sheet from @bakejusrol
• 4 oz cream cheese from @phillycreamchs
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
• 0 sliced jalapeño peppers (amount not specified) Creator did not specify an amount
• 1 egg egg beaten, for egg wash
• 0 hot honey (amount not specified) Creator did not specify an amount

Instructions

1. Roll out the puff pastry dough and spread with a layer of cream cheese evenly over the surface. Puff pastry is evenly covered with cream cheese.
2. Add a layer of sliced jalapeño peppers and shredded mozzarella cheese. Filling is distributed over the pastry.
3. Roll tightly into a log, allowing it to set in the freezer for 10-15 minutes if needed to firm up, then slice into 7 pinwheels. Log is firm enough to slice cleanly and cut into pinwheels.
4. Place the pinwheels on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush the tops with beaten egg. Pinwheels are ready for baking.
5. Bake at 400°F for 18-20 minutes until golden and flaky. Pinwheels are golden and flaky.
6. Allow to cool slightly, then drizzle with hot honey and enjoy. Pinwheels are cooled slightly and finished.
