Red Velvet Oreo Pinwheels

Red Velvet Oreo Pinwheels

Whoever at the Oreo cookie company that invented Red Velvet Oreos………you have my undying devotion. These are wonderful……..I sang that part.

So, when I saw a little video on Facebook…..it was a Wal Mart ad, called Oreo’s Let’s Play I without a doubt had to try it. Simple and easy using Oreo cookies and crescent dough.

Well, being me and loving …….I sang again……the red velvet Oreo, I wanted to use them. I also used puff pastry. Partly because I had it and mostly because I love flaky, golden puff pastry.

So here what I did:

 

First split the cookie and remove the cream center and set aside.

 

 

 

 

Place cookie part in a ziplock bag and crush. I used my meat tenderizer, and beat them…..good therapy…..lol.

 

 

 

Roll out 1 sheet of puff pastry, just a bit not too thin. and brush with butter.

 

 

 

 

Sprinkle crushed cookies evenly over buttered pastry.

 

 

 

Roll the pastry into a log.

 

 

 

 

Slice…..a serrated knife works really well.

 

 

 

Place on parchment lined cookie sheet. Press down slightly, and brush with egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water).

 

 

 

 

Bake.

 

 

 

Remove from oven and place cream filling on top of each pinwheel. Return to oven for just a minute. You can spread the “frosting” easier.

 

 

And ta da ……..Red Velvet Oreo Pinwheels.

Try other Oreo flavors to change the recipe up……….next time maybe peanut butter!
