Close up side shot of a plate of baked Italian Pinwheels with a bowl of nuts in the background I first tasted these Italian Pinwheels when my mom served them on a charcuterie board during cocktail hour before Easter dinner. The recipe originally comes from her friend Carol, who brought the appetizers to a happy hour at my folks' house last year. This is just one of those great recipes friends love to share! The baked pinwheels are perfect for parties because: They look and taste fancy, but they're actually incredibly easy and only require about 10 minutes of effort; They include just 6 simple ingredients; They can be prepared in advance to eliminate any last-minute stress; They can be served warm or at room temperature; The salty, savory bite-size treats are not messy, can be enjoyed with one hand (while holding a drink in the other), and are a nice complement to a glass of wine, a cocktail, or even a glass of seltzer water."
