Easy Pepper Cheese Cocktail Puffs Recipe | Savory Appetizers

 
INGREDIENTS

1/2 package (17-1/4 ounces) frozen puff pastry dough, thawed 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1/2 cup (2 ounces) finely shredded Cheddar cheese 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper 1 egg 1 tablespoon water

PREPARATION:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease baking sheets.
  2. Roll out 1 sheet puff pastry dough on well floured surface to 14x10-inch rectangle. Spread half of dough (from 10-inch side) with mustard. Sprinkle with cheese and pepper. Fold dough over filling; roll gently to seal edges.
  3. Cut lengthwise into 3 strips; cut each strip diagonally into 1-1/2-inch pieces. Place on prepared baking sheets. Beat egg and water in small bowl; brush onto appetizers.
  4. Bake appetizers 12 to 15 minutes or until puffed and deep golden brown. Remove from baking sheets to wire rack; cool.
Tip Work quickly and efficiently when using puff pastry. The colder puff pastry is, the better it will puff in the hot oven. This recipe can be easily doubled.
