Blue Cheese Walnut Twirl (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Filling and Pastry

01 - 50 grams of walnuts, roughly chopped
02 - 100 grams of Parmesan, shredded
03 - 100 grams of blue cheese, crumbled
04 - 6 to 8 sprigs of thyme, leaves only
05 - 2 puff pastry sheets, square-shaped
06 - 1 tablespoon milk for brushing
07 - 2 tablespoons of honey
08 - Sprinkle of cracked pepper and flaky sea salt

# Instructions:

01 - Fire up your oven to 180°C (350°F). For traditional non-fan ovens, crank it up a bit more—200°C (390°F).
02 - Spread a tablespoon of honey on each square sheet of puff pastry.
03 - On each pastry, scatter blue cheese crumbles, grated Parmesan, and walnut bits. Sprinkle with thyme and a pinch of salt and pepper.
04 - Roll up each pastry sheet nice and tight, chop the roll in half lengthwise, and fold the edges carefully so the fillings stay put.
05 - Take the long strips and twist them gently into circular spirals on some baking paper.
06 - Give your pastry spirals a milk wash, then bake them for about 25-30 minutes until they're golden, puffed, and firm to the touch.
07 - Pull them out of the oven, toss on some extra thyme, and serve warm.

# Notes:

01 - Using cold puff pastry gives you a flakier bite every time.
02 - Keep filling ingredients on the dry side to avoid soggy treats.
