Wisconsin Cheese Danish Pinwheels

- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup whole wheat flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions:
The pastry is flaky and layered, but hearty and satisfying.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In a smaller bowl, combine the yogurt and the melted butter. Add the yogurt mixture to the dry mixture. Turn out onto a floured board and knead several times to make a soft dough.
- Divide the dough in half. Roll half of the dough into an 8-inch square. Cut the square into 4-inch squares. Repeat with the remaining half of the dough. Form a pin-wheel with each square by cutting a slit 1 inch from the center to each corner diagonally. Use a spatula to transfer the dough to an ungreased baking sheet.
- For the cheese filling, in a small bowl, combine the cheese filling ingredients.
- Place a heaping spoonful of filling in the center of the dough square. Lift and fold every other point over the filling. Press the center to hold the points in place. Repeat with the remaining dough. Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown, while preparing the glaze.
- For the glaze, in a small bowl, mix the glaze ingredients until smooth. Set aside until the pinwheels are baked. Remove the baked pinwheels from the oven and place on a wire rack. Drizzle immediately with the glaze. Transfer to a serving plate and serve warm.
