So easy you can make it at the drop of a hat. The combinations for this are endless. Family favorites include: mozzarella with pepperoni and pizza sauce, jack cheese with green chilies, Jarlsberg and bay shrimp with Dijon mustard, and brie with sun-dried tomatoes and pesto. If you can get the restaurant size puff pastry this makes a REALLY impressive hors d’oeuvre.
Ingredients:
- 17 ounces Frozen Puff Pastry, defrosted
- 1 cup Havarti Cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Dill Weed, chopped
- Dijon mustard
Directions:
- Defrost puff pastry in the refrigerator over night.
- Preheat oven to 400°.
- Place a sheet of pastry on a rimless baking sheet.
- Brush with a thin spread of mustard.
- Sprinkle with cheese and dill, leaving a 1/2 inch border.
- Moisten the edge of sheet with water.
- Place second sheet on top.
- Seal edges with the tines of a fork.
- Pierce top sheet of pastry with a fork.
- Return to the refrigerator for half an hour – it puffs up more.
- Bake approximately 15 – 20 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.
- Slide onto cutting/serving board.
- Let rest 5 minutes before cutting into small squares and serving.
Serves: 12 or so.
Note: Freezes well uncooked. We always have one in the freezer “just in case”!
