Puff Pastry Twists


Frozen puff pastry is inexpensive and convenient. You can easily half this recipe and save one sheet of pastry for later. These twists are perfect with a bowl of soup or as an appetizer.




1 package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
1/2 stick butter, melted
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Optional toppings - garlic powder (1/4 teaspoon), garlic salt (1/2 teaspoon), dried basil(1 teaspoon), dried parsley (1 teaspoon), dried rosemary (1 teaspoon), dried thyme (1 teaspoon)

Mix parmesan cheese with desired toppings. Unfold pasty sheets. Brush with butter and sprinkle with parmesan mixture. Lightly press into dough. Flip pastry over and repeat. Using a pizza cutter or a knife slice into about 10 strips. Twist strips and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake in 400 degree oven about 12 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
