Hunker Down To Watch Those Scary October Movies With Yummy Italian Snails

These little pinwheels make an excellent after school or work snack. They go together so easily and cook up really fast. Whenever I know my kids are going to be having a big day full of tests or something else to drain them, I like to make them a hearty treat and these are a favorite in my house. They are also nice to munch on for movie or game nights. The teenagers can even help me put them together!
