Receta Retro: Smoked Salmon Pinwheels

by Sid's Sea Palm Cooking

I've really been on a pinwheel sandwich kick lately.  Maybe I got carried away a little? Nah. These little sandwiches were ubiquitous at nearly every gathering where you served canapes and finger sandwiches along with teacakes and cookies when I was growing up.  Sometimes you knew what was inside and sometimes you didn't and sometimes they weren't all that tasty, but there were also times when your mouth got pleasantly surprised. And these little pinwheels will make your mouth sing.  Maybe not in tune,  but sing they will. I brought them to a gathering last weekend and they were a hit, as in every sandwich on the plate disappeared. These might be kinda fun to bring to a Super Bowl party as well.  Yield: about 36 pinwheelsAuthor: Sid's Sea Palm CookingPrint Recipe Smoked Salmon Pinwheels prep time: 10 MINScook time: 1 hourtotal time: 1 hours and 10 mins ingredients: 8 oz, Cream Cheese, softened 6 oz.
