Description

Creamy and zesty pinwheels featuring cream cheese, cheddar, and jalapeños, perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Diced Jalapeños
  • 1/4 cup Diced Green Onions
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 4 Large Flour Tortillas
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, diced jalapeños, diced green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything blends seamlessly, creating a creamy, aromatic filling.
  2. Spread the Mixture: Lay a tortilla flat. Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of the tortilla, reaching all the way to the edges for maximum flavor.
  3. Roll it Up: Starting from one edge, roll the tortilla tightly to ensure a generous filling in each bite.
  4. Slice with Precision: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled tortillas into 1-inch pinwheels.
  5. Serve or Chill: Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

Make-ahead tips: Pinwheels can be prepared a day in advance. Store in an airtight container. Consider warming them in an air fryer for a crisp version.
