BAKLAVA PINWHEEL COOKIES

Steps:

• Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Add flour, baking soda, and salt and beat until well incorporated. Shape dough into a disk, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until firm enough to roll.
• Place walnuts in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. In a small saucepan, heat honey and cinnamon over medium heat, stirring until honey has liquefied and cinnamon is incorporated. Add walnuts and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
• Remove dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a lightly floured surface into a 13x10-inch rectangle. Using a butter knife, spread honey-walnut mixture evenly over the dough to within 1/2-inch from the edges.
• Starting with the long side, tightly roll the dough, jelly-roll style, to form a log. Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
• Unwrap dough and cut into 1/4-inch slices. Place slices, cut-side down, 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges begin to brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove baking sheets to a cooling rack and let cookies cool completely.

FUJI LICIOUS BAKLAVA PINWHEELS

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Peel & core apples and crack filberts. Chop both finely in food processor. In pyrex bowl stir together the apple mixture, fruictose, honey, flour, flax seed, salt. Cook in microwave for about 6 minutes until apples are almost tender. Let mixture chill for about 20 minutes.
• 2. Crush cereal, melt butter and unwrap filo. Cover dough with plastic wrap and a damp towel while you are working with it. Cut the 12"x 16" rectangle of filo sheets in half, making 2 stacks of 8"x 12". On a parchment lined cookie sheet, start stacking the sheets and brushing butter between sheets, sprinkling each layer with some of the crushed frosted flakes. When u have made about 8 layers, spread 1/2 of the apple filling to the edges of filo and roll up, jelly roll fashion from the 12" side. Brush with butter and set aside. Repeat directions and make a second roll. Brush with butter and bake for about 35 minutes until light golden brown. Let cool before slicing. This would be yummy served with frozen yogurt. Enjoy!
