Puff Pastry Cheese Straws

Puff Pastry Cheese Straws

These puff pastry cheese twists are simple and delicious. This cheesy goodness is best served dunked in some delicious soup(I VOTE Tomato Soup!). This recipe elevates the plain ol’ cheese sticks with the addition of spices and some herbs. Enjoy the deliciousness!

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tsp thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp red chili powder substitute with paprika
  • 1 tsp crushed black pepper
  • ½ cup shredded cheese
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions

PROCESS:

  • Pre-heat oven to 375℉
  • Gently roll the thawed puff pastry to smoothen. Apply an egg wash over the sheet; making sure you get the edges. Evenly sprinkle salt, garlic powder, chili powder or paprika if using, crushed black pepper. Cover the sheet generously with cheese. I used a mix of cheddar and mozzarella but feel free to choose any cheese you like. Press the cheese using a rolling pin.
  • Fold the sheet in half and roll with a rolling pin again to make sure it sticks. Using a knife; cut into 1-inch strips and make twists with each strip. Apply an egg wash to each strip.

  • Bake for 16-18 mins. Let them cool a bit before serving. Store in a cool, dry place!

GIFTING:

  • I like to pack these in brown paper bags. Tie with a ribbon and add some thyme sprigs on the bow to decorate.
