Nutella & Ricotta Pinwheels Recipe

[Fivemplarity]

We've all been there: you buy a sheet of puff pastry for a recipe, but you're left with some leftover scraps. Don't throw them away! Instead, transform them into delicious Nutella & Ricotta Pinwheels. This recipe is a quick and easy way to use up leftover puff pastry and create a delightful sweet treat.

Nutella and ricotta make the perfect flavor combination in these pinwheels. The rich, chocolatey hazelnut spread pairs beautifully with the creamy ricotta cheese, creating a sweet and satisfying dessert. The puff pastry adds a delightful flakiness that takes this treat over the top.

Plus, this recipe is incredibly versatile. You can adjust the amount of Nutella and ricotta to your taste preference, or even add other ingredients like chopped nuts, chopped fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.

Here's what you'll need:

• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
• 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
• 1/4 cup Nutella (or more to taste)
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Here's how to make it:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Unfold the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the entire pastry sheet, leaving a 1/2 inch border around the edges.
3. Drizzle the Nutella over the ricotta cheese in a thin layer. You can use more or less Nutella depending on your preference.
4. Roll up the puff pastry sheet tightly from the long end, jelly-roll style. Brush the seam with the beaten egg to seal.
5. Cut the roll into 1-inch slices. Place the slices on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down. Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the remaining beaten egg.
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
7. Let the pinwheels cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) and serve.

Nutella & Ricotta Pinwheels are a delicious and easy way to use up leftover puff pastry! They're perfect for a quick dessert, after-school snack, or even a fun party treat. So ditch the boring store-bought pastries and give this recipe a try!
