Pinwheel cookies i am attempting for the first time but i am so happy with the results. I was in a dilemma whether to make short bread cookies or chocolate chip cookies, but finally decided to make pinwheel cookies. I saw few videos in you tube and had an idea as how to make pinwheel cookies. I made an basic eggless vanilla cookie dough and added some melted chocolate chip to make a chocolate dough. I am so happy with the results . Do give it a try at home and for sure your kids will love this.
The recipe of the basic cookies is from Joy of baking.
