Description

Delightful appetizers featuring a creamy filling of cheese and jalapenos, wrapped in flaky puff pastry. Perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry (thawed)
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Sliced Jalapenos
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 large Egg
  • Ranch, Sriracha Mayo, Honey Mustard (for dipping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar, sliced jalapenos, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  3. Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
  4. Place a tablespoon of the jalapeno filling at one end of each pastry strip. Fold the pastry over and twist it a few times to encase the filling.
  5. Place the twisted pieces onto the lined baking sheet. Beat the egg and brush it over the twists for a nice golden finish.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky.
  7. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a preheated oven to restore crispiness.
