- Heat oven to 400 degrees.

- Shred 2 cups of Gruyere cheese with a cheese grater and tear 1 3 oz. package of prosciutto into pieces.
- Unfold both sheets of Puff Pastry once they have slightly thawed. Lightly flour a flat surface and roll them out slightly with a rolling pin. Do not roll them out completely. Simply roll out the creases in the pastry sheets.
- Pierce each piece of Puff Pastry with a fork 10-12 times. This will prevent the pastry from 'puffing' as it bakes and will allow the pinwheels to stay together.

- Roll each of the pastry sheets tightly into a 'log' shape.
- Cut each pastry sheet into 12-14 slices (each slice should be 1/2").
- Spray baking sheet with cooking spray.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the pepper in a roasting pan and roast in the oven, checking every 15 minutes, and turning with tongs until the skin is fully wrinkled and charred black. When the peppers is done, use tongs to put it into a ziptop bag which (for safety reasons) you have resting on a plate - (Remember, it is volcanically hot!). Carefully zip the bag shut, and allow the pepper to sweat for 5 minutes. Use oven mitts to prevent getting burned while you handle the bag in the next step of sliding the pepper from the bag into a bowl filled with a couple of inches of ice water. You can then use your fingers to work quickly to slip off and discard the skin of the pepper while it is in the water. You will be left with a beautifully cooked red pepper with a wonderful color. Cut open the pepper and remove seeds. Slice it into strips and set aside.
- Roll out each puff pastry sheet and on the surface of each of the 2 sheets evenly arrange 4 slices of prosciutto ham, 6 spinach leaves, half of the red pepper strips, 1/8-cup Cheddar, and 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Roll up the dough "jelly roll" style into a log (so the cross-section of the roll will be a spiral design, the "pinwheel"). Place the logs in the freezer for 50 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove "pinwheel" logs and from freezer and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices and place on a baking sheet. Brush with egg wash. Bake until golden brown, approximately 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Place pastry sheet on work surface. Cut in half, forming two 9 1/2x4 3/4-inch rectangles. Arrange half of prosciutto on 1 rectangle, leaving 1/2-inch border along 1 side. Sprinkle prosciutto with half of basil, then top with half of cheese. Brush plain border with egg glaze. Starting at long side opposite border, roll up pastry jelly-roll style, pressing gently to seal long edges. Wrap in plastic. Repeat with remaining pastry, prosciutto, basil, cheese, and egg to form second log. Refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours and up to 2 days.
- Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Cut logs crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Arrange rounds on prepared sheets, spacing 1 inch apart. Bake 1 sheet at a time until pastries are golden brown, about 16 minutes. Using metal spatula, transfer pastries to racks and cool slightly. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Use thin prosciutto slices: This will make it easier to roll the pinwheels and will also help them cook evenly.
- Don't overstuff the pinwheels: Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and will also make them more likely to fall apart.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the pinwheels: This will help to create clean, even cuts.
- Bake the pinwheels until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and that the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve the pinwheels warm or at room temperature: They can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack.
Conclusion:
Sage prosciutto pinwheels are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be enjoyed as a light lunch or dinner. With their crispy prosciutto, melted cheese, and savory sage, these pinwheels are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
