Jalapeno Popper Pinwheels

Jalapeno Popper Pinwheels are an easy-to-make appetizer that features a sheet of puff pastry rolled with a jalapeno popper filling, then cut and baked to a spirally golden flaky perfection. For even more flavor, garlic butter is brushed on top for an addicting appetizer perfect for your next party or gathering. I will also let you know how to make these in an air fryer! It’s a fun and flavorful twist on jalapeno poppers!

Ingredients:
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 tablespoon dry ranch seasoning
1 cup (113 g) cheddar cheese, shredded
2 medium jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely diced
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed according to package instructions

Garlic Butter:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl mix together cream cheese, ranch seasoning, cheddar cheese, jalapenos, and bacon. Set aside while you prepare the puff pastry. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the puff pastry dough out into a 9×12 inch rectangle. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough, leaving about a ½ inch of empty space on the long edge. Wet the empty edge of the dough with water (or a beaten egg). This will help the dough stay together when rolled. Roll the dough into a tight log, starting on the opposite long edge. Press gently along the edge to hold it together. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the log into 12 equal sized pieces. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.

Garlic Butter:
In a small bowl combine melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt. Brush over the baked pinwheels and serve warm.
