# Ingredients Required:

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Preheat the oven to 190°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface, pressing out any creases to form an even rectangle.
03 - Evenly spread the softened cream cheese over the puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
04 - Distribute the cranberry sauce or chopped dried cranberries and crumbled feta cheese evenly over the cream cheese layer.
05 - Scatter the chopped fresh herbs evenly over the filling.
06 - Tightly roll the pastry from one long edge into a log and slice into 2.5 cm pieces.
07 - Place the pinwheels cut side up on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash.
08 - Bake for 18 to 22 minutes until the pinwheels are golden and puffed.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Using cold puff pastry ensures a flaky texture; avoid over-handling to keep it tender.
