I have made this recipe twice and find it has just the right anount of sweetness and tartness. It is good with a cup of coffee or included in your breakfast menu. It is not complicated to make. I will be using this yummy roll a lot.

I made these for a morning brunch and they are delicious! Easy, unique, flavorful and fun to make. My little grandkids and I had fun assembling the pinwheels and then we had even more fun eating them!
