  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 large flour tortillas
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1 cup canned jalapeños, chopped (or fresh, if preferred)
– ½ teaspoon garlic powder
– ½ teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)


Instructions

Creating Jalapeño Popper Pinwheels is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, chopped jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well-blended.
2. Spread the Mixture: Take one tortilla and spread an even layer of the cheese mixture over it, leaving a little space at the edges.
3. Roll the Tortilla: Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla away from you, ensuring the filling is wrapped securely inside.
4. Repeat: Rolled the remaining tortillas in the same manner with the cheese mixture.
5. Chill the Pinwheels: Wrap the rolled tortillas in plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes. This helps them firm up for easier slicing.
6. Slice the Pinwheels: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled tortillas into 1-inch pinwheels. Arrange them on a serving platter.
7. Serve Immediately: Optionally, garnish with chopped cilantro for an extra pop of color.

These straightforward steps will guide you in creating these delightful pinwheels effortlessly.
