CRACK PINWHEELS
It's finally time for college football!!! The first games are being played this weekend, and we are SO excited! We are going to be whipping up a batch of these Crack Pinwheels to snack on during the games. Pizza dough stuffed with cream cheese, ranch, cheddar and bacon. SO good!!! They are great dipped in additional ranch dressing! YUM!
These Crack Pinwheels are great as an appetizer, snack or as an accompaniment to soups and stews. Heck, I ate them for lunch one day! LOL! This recipe make 32 Crack Pinwheels. You can easily half the recipe if you don't need that many. These pinwheels taste great hot out of the oven or at room temperature. Perfect for tailgating!
IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT TIME OF YEAR IT IS, SUMMER OR WINTER OR ANY SEASON IN BETWEEN- I ALWAYS GET EXCITED WHEN I SEE PINWHEELS AT ANY PARTY! ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS I GRAVITATE TOWARDS! THEY’RE SO FUN AND EASY TO EAT TOO!
THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT VERSIONS OUT THERE! THE FLAVOR POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS!
SINCE ‘CRACK’ RECIPES ARE VIRAL ALL OVER THE INTERNET NOW A DAYS, I KNEW I HAD TO MAKE A PINWHEEL VERSION!
“CRACK’ WHEN USED AS A RECIPE TERM, JUST MEANS BACON AND CHEESE (IN A SAVORY DISH) AND WHO DOESNT LOVE BACON AND CHEESE?! THEY ARE TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS TO EAT, I KNEW I HAD TO MAKE THESE PINWHEEL APPETIZER VERSIONS STUFFED WITH THOSE MAGICAL FLAVORS.
