There were a few months at the first of the year that I was not in the kitchen. Four months actually. During that time I missed several ‘assignments’ from Bake!. Now it’s time to play catch-up.

Using Malgieri’s Quick Danish Pastry Dough I had made a batch of earlier in the week I took 1/4 of the 1/2 recipe and made 4 pinwheels. The recipe had several variations including plums, pineapple, and apples in addition to the apricot. I used the apple filling from the strudel
Pinwheels are fun to make. Cut 4″ squares of dough. Cut them from the corner toward the center leaving a small platform of dough, fill, turn one corner of the dough square into the filling (from each corner) and bake. Easy Peasy. YES!!!! Easy!! ANd VERY good!
You can find the recipe on page 114 of Nick Malgieri’s Bake!
NOW!! Go pick up Malgieri’s Bake! and join in the fun. And vist the FB page for Bake!

These really are the prettiest, aren’t they? I was so intimidated by the shaping, but you’re right: way easier than they look! Can’t believe you were out of the kitchen for FOUR months! SO happy you’re back and you guys are doing so well. =)

Those were the longest 4 months EVER. Happy you are back in the kitchen as it was getting rather lonely without you there. Your pinwheels look so perfect….really pretty and delicious. I wish I lived next door to you for all sorts of reasons, but this would definitely be one of them!
