Ingredients
  

  • 2 sheets Puffy Pastry Dough
  • ¾ cup Cream cheese
  • ½ cup Jam
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tbsp Water
  • Granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Lightly flour a clean countertop with flour. Roll out the puff pastry, one sheet at a time. Cut the pastry into 6 equal and even squares. Then using a pairing knife, slice all 4 corners inwards.
  • Transfer the squares to the prepared baking sheet. Add a tablespoon of cream cheese to the center of the square using an offset spatula. Next add a teaspoon of your favorite jam on top. Fold one corner of each triangle piece towards the center.
  • Press down firmly and repeat the process for the remaining sides. In order to prevent the pinwheels from opening while baking, insert a toothpick in the center. In a small bowl, mix together an egg and water. Brush the egg wash on the flat side of the pinwheels. Sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake for 15-25 minutes. Enjoy!
