Manchego Twists

By GratefulSea

If you can't find Manchego cheese, use Asiago. If you can't find that, sub with Pecorino Romano.

Ingredients

• 1 thawed sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce box)
• 1 beaten egg
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1-1/4 cups finely grated Manchego cheese (about 5 ounces)

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400° F. Brush the pastry with the egg, and sprinkle with the paprika, salt, and 1 cup of the cheese.

Cut the pastry into 12 ¾-inch-wide strips, then halve the strips crosswise.

Twist the strips and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them 1 inch apart.

Sprinkle with the remaining ¼ cup of cheese and bake until golden and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Keep at room temperature for up to 1 week.
