From the Test Kitchen

These warm, delicious pinwheels are about as fun to make as they are to eat! You'll top pizza dough with fragrant basil pesto and rich fontina, then roll it all up, slice it into individual pieces to showcase the flavorful spirals, then bake until golden brown.

Form the pinwheels
1 Form the pinwheels

Remove the dough from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven, then preheat to 450°F. Line a sheet pan with foil; lightly oil the foil. Using your hands, gently stretch the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness, maintaining an even thickness (if the dough is resistant, let rest 5 minutes). Place on a work surface. Evenly top with pesto and fontina. Carefully roll the dough into a log, creating a spiral. Using a sharp knife, cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces; transfer to the sheet pan, cut side down. Arrange in an even layer and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with all but a pinch of the parmesan.
