Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 400°F. In food processor, place broccoli florets; pulse a few times until broccoli is finely chopped. (If you don’t have a food processor, just finely chop broccoli with knife).
  • 2
    Unroll dough unto work surface into 1 large rectangle; press perforations and seams to seal.
  • 3
    In small microwavable bowl, microwave cream cheese on High 30 seconds. Add garlic powder; stir until smooth and combined. Spread cream cheese mixture over dough to within 1/4 inch of one side.
  • 4
    Sprinkle broccoli evenly over cream cheese mixture; sprinkle evenly with chicken. Place sheet of waxed paper over dough; gently press down to compress filling.
  • 5
    Starting with side of dough opposite clean side, roll up dough to form a log; pinch seam to seal. Using sharp knife, cut roll into 8 equal slices (pinwheels); place cut side down in ungreased 8- or 9-inch round pan.
  • 6
    In small dish, stir French fried onions and melted butter, coating onions lightly with butter. Sprinkle over top of each pinwheel.
  • 7
    Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until pinwheels are light golden brown. Serve warm.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Add 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese to the cream cheese mixture for an even cheesier pinwheel.
  • tip 2
    Substitute Progresso™ panko crispy bread crumbs for the French fried onions for a different kind of crunch.
