Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and thaw the puff pastry for 20-30 minutes.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped spinach, artichokes, Parmesan, cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix until creamy.
  3. Cut the thawed puff pastry in half, spread filling on one half, and place the other half on top, sealing the edges.
  4. Cut into 6 strips, twist each strip to create a spiral shape, and roll each into a swirl.
  5. Prepare an egg wash by beating the egg with water and brush each swirl.
  6. Place swirls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for approximately 25 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Allow to cool slightly before serving warm.

Notes

Thaw puff pastry completely before use to avoid breaking during assembly. Drain frozen spinach thoroughly to prevent sogginess.
