Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
If you don't have ranch dressing mix, you can make your own by combining 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives, 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
To make the pinwheels ahead of time, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before slicing.
You can also freeze the pinwheels for up to 2 months. To freeze, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe bag. When ready to serve, thaw the pinwheels overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for 30 minutes.
For a fun and festive presentation, cut the pinwheels into bite-sized pieces and serve them on a platter with toothpicks.
