Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup dried cranberries, chopped
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped dried cranberries, crumbled feta cheese, and finely chopped green onions. Stir until well mixed.
- Lay out a flour tortilla and spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface.
- Roll the tortilla tightly into a log and repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
- Remove from the refrigerator and unwrap. Slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
- Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- Make-Ahead Tip: These pinwheels taste even better after a few hours in the fridge. Make them the night before for the best flavor and texture.
- Best Knife for Slicing: A serrated knife works best to cut clean pinwheels without squishing the filling.
- Prevent Sogginess: Pat the cranberries dry before mixing, and avoid overfilling with cream cheese.
- Serving Suggestion: Arrange in a circular pattern on a platter and garnish with fresh rosemary or a drizzle of honey for a festive touch.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Avoid freezing after slicing, as the tortillas may become too soft.
