Ingredients
500
gms ( 17.6 oz)
Puff pastry
Homemade or store-bought
1
tbsp
All-purpose flour
150
gms ( 1 1/4 cups)
Cheddar cheese, grated
1
tsp
Paprika
Optional
1/4
tsp
Garlic powder
Optional
1/4
tsp
Onion powder

Instructions
Line a baking tray with parchment paper or Silpat. You may need 2 trays.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated cheese on it. Place the puff pastry on top and roll it out a bit.
Sprinkle the balance cheese, paprika, garlic, and onion powder on top. Roll out the pastry to about 9"x14" rectangle.
Cut the rolled-out dough into 1/2" strips using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
Twist the strips to give the spiral look. Place on the prepared tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 200 C or 400 F.
Bake at 200 C for 15-20 minutes until the straws are dry, puffed up, and golden.
Let the straws cool on the tray for 3-4 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack or serving platter.
Serve at room temperature and enjoy!
Notes
If the cheese straws get a bit soft, reheat them for 4-5 minutes in a 200 C/ 400 F preheated oven.
