A delicious snack to serve with cocktails. Don’t worry if some of the toppings fall off while you twist the pastry strips; work over the baking sheet and some will bake back onto the bottoms of the twists.

1 sheet PC Butter Puff Pastry , thawed
2/3 cup (150 mL) grated PC Splendido Parmigiano Reggiano , about 50 g

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line large baking sheet with parchment paper.
