Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed if frozen)
- 0.5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface until it’s about 1/8-inch thick.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.
Step 4
Brush the rolled-out puff pastry evenly with the egg wash.
Step 5
In another bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, paprika, garlic powder, and salt.
Step 6
Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry, gently pressing it into the dough with your hands or a rolling pin.
Step 7
Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut the pastry into strips about 1/2-inch wide and 4-5 inches long.
Step 8
Twist each strip a few times to create a spiral shape and place it on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each stick.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese sticks are golden brown and crisp.
Step 10
Let the cheese sticks cool slightly on the baking sheet, then transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Step 11
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
