Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1 cup of chopped dried cranberries, ½ cup of powdered sugar, the zest of one orange, and 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed orange juice. Using a hand mixer, blend until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Place a flour tortilla on a clean, flat surface. Spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small margin around the edges.
- Starting from one edge, roll the tortilla tightly, keeping the filling intact.
- Wrap the rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
- After an hour, unwrap the pinwheel and slice it into 1-inch thick rounds.
- Sprinkle chopped nuts over the sliced pinwheels if desired.
- Arrange the sliced pinwheels on a decorative serving platter.

Notes
Make pinwheels a day ahead for convenience. Wrap tightly and store in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
