What is "pinwheel cookie"?

A pinwheel cookie is a type of cookie that is made from two different types of dough that are rolled together to create a swirl or pinwheel pattern. The dough is typically made from a mixture of flour, sugar, butter, and eggs, and can be flavored with different extracts or spices. The two different doughs are then rolled out into thin rectangles and layered on top of each other. The dough is then rolled up tightly to create a log, and chilled until firm. Once chilled, the log is sliced into rounds, revealing the pinwheel pattern inside. Pinwheel cookies are a popular treat for holidays or special occasions because they are visually appealing and can be made in a variety of colors and flavors. They are often served with a cup of coffee or tea.
