- 50 Min
A delightful spin on the classic "Elephant Ears" cookies, these newly-named Chocolate Pinwheels will have everyone clamoring for more. These delicate and sweet pastries are simple to make and packed with yumminess!
What You'll Need
- 1 package (17.25 ounces) frozen puff pastry sheets, slightly thawed
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 egg, beaten
What to Do
- Preheat the oven to 400 degree F. On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll out each pastry sheet to a 12-inch square.
- In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cocoa. Brush the pastry sheets with the beaten egg and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the chocolate mixture evenly over each pastry sheet. Tightly roll each pastry sheet into a log and cut 1/2-inch slices. Place on a baking sheet that has been lightly coated with nonstick baking spray.
- Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until golden.
Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
Notes
Make sure to thaw the pastry just until slightly thawed. Otherwise, it'll be too hard to handle.
