Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry (thawed)
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese (or Monterey Jack)
  • 1/2 cup Sliced Jalapenos (fresh or pickled)
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 large Egg (for egg wash)
  • as needed Dipping Sauces (ranch, sriracha mayo, or honey mustard)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/8 inch thick and cut into rectangles, approximately 3 inches by 5 inches.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced jalapenos, and garlic powder. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  4. Spoon a generous amount of filling onto one side of each pastry rectangle. Fold over the other half of the pastry to cover the filling. Use a fork to seal the edges securely.
  5. Using a pastry brush, apply the beaten egg over each twist.
  6. Place the prepared twists on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
  7. Allow them to cool slightly before serving with your choice of dipping sauces.
