Equipment Needed

Baking tray, baking parchment, sharp knife, cheese grater, knife

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
  • 6 tbsps Hot Jalapeño Peanut Butter
  • 100g mature cheddar cheese, finely grated
  • 1 egg, beaten

Method

1.) Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan) and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2.) Unroll the puff pastry and spread the Hot Jalapeño Peanut Butter in a thin, even layer over the surface. Sprinkle the grated cheddar evenly on top.

3.) Fold the pastry in half to enclose the filling and press down gently to seal. Cut into strips approximately 2cm wide. Holding each strip at both ends, twist several times before placing it on the prepared baking tray. Brush each twist with the beaten egg.

4.) Chill the twists in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up, then bake for 15-20 minutes, or until puffed, golden brown and crisp.

5.) Leave to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container or tin for up to 5 days.

Recipe Notes

To vary, try the following!

Sweet & savoury: Drizzle a little honey over the Hot Jalapeño Peanut Butter before sprinkling over the cheese for a delicious sweet and spicy twist.

Extra cheesy: Use a combination of mature cheddar and Parmesan for an even richer, bolder cheese flavour.
