Pesto Puff Pastry Pinwheel - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 sheets puff pastry
    2 teaspoons all-purpose flour, or as needed
    8 1/2 ounces ricotta cheese
    8 1/2 ounces pesto
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and dust lightly with flour.
    Lay puff pastry on a flat work surface; cut a 12-inch circle from each sheet. Transfer 1 circle to the prepared baking sheet.
    Spread ricotta evenly over the pastry circle. Top with an even layer of pesto. Lay the second pastry circle on top. Set a small glass upside down in the middle of the circle.
    Cut the circle, away from the glass, into 4 equal quarters. Cut each quarter in half, then each eighth in half, to make 16 equal strips. Remove glass. Twist strips twice, two at a time, in the opposite direction. Pinch ends together. Repeat with remaining strips to make a pinwheel shape.
    Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
