Ingredients

• 2 sheets puff pastry sheets (thawed if frozen)
• 200 grams cream cheese (softened)
• 100 grams shredded cheddar cheese
• 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 1 whole egg (beaten, for egg wash)
• 1 tablespoon milk (for egg wash)
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan, chopped chives, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Roll out the puff pastry sheets slightly on a floured surface and cut each sheet into 6 equal squares, giving you 12 squares in total.

Step 4

Place a heaping teaspoon of the cheese mixture onto the center of each square.

Step 5

Fold each pastry square into a triangle, pressing the edges together firmly to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the beaten egg and milk to create an egg wash.

Step 7

Brush the tops of the pastry triangles with the egg wash to give them a golden, glossy finish.

Step 8

Place the filled pastry triangles onto the prepared baking tray, leaving a small gap between each to allow for expansion.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and crispy.

Step 10

Remove the Savoury Cheesecake Puffs from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve warm.
