Description
Delicious and easy Cranberry Feta Pinwheels featuring a creamy blend of whipped cream cheese, tangy feta, chopped green onions, and sweet dried cranberries rolled in soft flour tortillas. Perfect as a festive appetizer or snack, these pinwheels can be made ahead and served chilled.
Ingredients
Filling
- 1 carton (8 ounces) whipped cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (8 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 package (5 ounces) dried cranberries
Wraps
- 4 flour tortillas (10 inches)
Instructions
- Mix the filling ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the softened whipped cream cheese, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped green onions. Stir in the dried cranberries until the mixture is well blended.
- Spread the mixture on tortillas: Evenly spread about 1/2 cup of the cream cheese mixture over each flour tortilla, ensuring an even layer without overfilling.
- Roll and chill: Roll each tortilla up tightly to form a log. Wrap each roll securely in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
- Slice and serve: Remove the rolls from the refrigerator and unwrap. Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 10 even slices to create bite-sized pinwheels. Serve chilled.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese for easy mixing and a smooth filling texture.
- Ensure tortillas are pliable; warming them slightly can help if they are stiff.
- For a different flavor, try substituting green onions with fresh chives or adding a dash of black pepper.
- These pinwheels can be prepared up to a day in advance and kept refrigerated.
- Ideal for holiday parties or as an easy-to-make appetizer for gatherings.
