Puff Pastry Swirl Cookies

Directions

Makes: 15 cookies
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bake Time: 10-12 minutes

Place the Nutella and cream cheese in separate microwave safe containers and microwave for 30 seconds each until soft and easily spreadable. Lay out two sheets of puff pastry on a clean countertop. Evenly spread the Nutella on one sheet of puff pastry, leaving a ½-inch border on the side furthest from you. Repeat this step using the cream cheese on the other sheet of puff pastry.  

Next, carefully place one sheet on top of the other evenly leaving the blank strips on the furthest side. Starting from the side nearest you, roll the pastry into a log, keeping it as tight as you can. When you come to the top, brush the blank strip with melted margarine and finish the roll. Lightly brush the whole outside of the roll with margarine. To maintain the shape of the roll, wrap with parchment paper and place in freezer for about 30 minutes to an hour to chill.

Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Remove log from freezer and slice it into 15 to 18 pieces. Place slices on baking sheet, and lightly brush the top with the remaining margarine. Place in oven and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
