Ingredients
- 1 sheet of frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons white wine
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, white wine, garlic powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out slightly to smooth the creases.
- Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one end, tightly roll the puff pastry sheet into a log, sealing the edges as you go.
- Place the cheese-filled puff pastry log onto the prepared baking sheet and brush the surface with the beaten egg wash.
- Using a sharp knife, make small diagonal cuts on the surface of the puff pastry log, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into individual portions.
- Serve the Quick Wine and Cheese Puff warm and enjoy!
