I have made this recipe two times and am about to make it a third. People really love these, and it is simple to make! My one suggestion is to be careful when cutting the pinwheels, the dough and mixture is very soft and will not cut well if you're not using a VERY sharp knife. Great for potlucks!

I made this for my book club and it was well-received. Very easy and good! I didn't use quite as much green onion (3 instead of 4). Making it again for a holiday party appetizer.

Made this for Thanksgiving TWICE! Both sides of the family loved it. I used roasted red peppers instead of pimentos and it was a hit!!

It helped to refrigerate the rolled, filled dough for a short while before slicing. My book club members all wanted the recipe! It was an easy, tasty treat!
