We invited friends round for New Year’s Eve so I needed to make some little bites for us all. One of my friends doesn’t eat meat, so while sausage rolls and ribs were a given, and were currently in the oven, I needed to make something nice for E.
She does love cheese, though, and in the fridge I had some Philadelphia and some Dairylea slices (I know, I know… but I had made Aberdeen Angus beefburgers and wanted to add a cheese slice…and this was what was left from the packet)
So… with the rest of the puff pastry, I rolled it flat and then
put half a cheese slice on the pastry and then put a spoon full of cream cheese on top of that
and then rolled the pastry over.
A quick brush with egg, then slicing them into bitesize morsels and off into a hot oven (200 degrees) with them for ten to fifteen minutes
And out they came.
Golden little rolls, stuffed with delicious melting cheese.
For something that was created quickly from necessity and bits from the fridge, they were delicious and I shall definitely do them again. The combination of cheese slice with cream cheese was gorgeous – the two tastes blended beautifully together.
As it happened, poor E was felled by a dreadful bug and couldn’t make it to the party.. so we ate them all and toasted her!
Just as well I ate them before starting on my diet, eh?
