  • Claire Saffitz Makes Easy Homemade Pinwheel Cookies | Dessert Person
    To make these pinwheel cookies, phyllo dough is brushed with melted butter, sprinkled with cardamom sugar, rolled into a spiraled log, and sliced and baked. In the oven, the melted butter and cardamom sugar mingle and caramelize on the sheet pan, forming a glassy surface, while the phyllo bakes up flaky and golden all the way through. The cookies are so shatteringly tender that they give palmiers, a buttery French cookie
    made from puff pastry (and one of my favorite cookies), a run for their money.

    Things to add to the bingo board:

    Wild animals walking outside the window
    Claire talks about her chickens
    Harris makes an appearance
    Claire hands out pieces of the food to the crew
    Love this idea and your videos as always, Claire! ❤

    For phylo newbies: there's different thicknesses to them! Bigger number=thinner (f ex, some are marked as №4, some as #10). Thinner is better for the crisp but it's harder to work with!

      I was coming to the comments to ask because I've tried to make these cookies a couple times and 9 phyllo layers is definitely not as thick as hers. And I can't slice mine without them breaking.
      Thank you for the information. It sucks cause the lack of phyllo I get are the only ones available in my area. Lol

    Hi, great recipe. If you place the intact roll in a deep snug baking tin, and cut the pieces in situ, baked them and then pour a spice syrup over them you will have something similar to the Middle Eastern pastries. You either pour cold syrup over the hot pastry or hot syrup over the cold pastry. Thank you for the inspiration. X

    Question for those used to phyllo, does it do well with cream or fruit. I’d like to try this in some sort of bite size form. Possibly with a thick custard or cream brushed on(or pipped, but very thin layer) and berry added. Like I like the idea of this texture from the look of it but I’ve never actually worked with it myself.

    • @jackdaw99

    Claire I hope my comment makes it to you somehow because there has been something I would LOVE for you to make a video of. I am a huge fan of panetonne, more specifically the chocolate (chip) variant that is very common in Brazil. Most videos/recipes online I see have a very basic recipe where the loaf is sort of compact, as I imagine it is the traditional way. However some places I have tried it in have really mastered making it into something that goes above and beyond -- the panetonne gets this pull apart texture similar to a brioche/milk bread that is sooo decadent (is there a name for it?). You are the only person in the world I can think of that could shine a light and make it possible for me to replicate this recipe. Thank you so much!
