Ingredients

  • 1 package frozen puff pastry

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 1-2 teaspoons cayenne pepper (optional)

  • 1 cup sharp and shredded cheddar cheese

  • 26-30 pieces thin cut bacon (or 18 pieces of thin cut bacon sliced in half lengthwise)

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375° F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly rub each rack with olive oil.

  • Place both sheets of pastry on a lightly floured counter. Brush the surface of each with a beaten egg. Evenly sprinkle about 1/2 cup of cheese over each sheet, then sprinkle with cayenne. Dust a rolling pin lightly with flour and roll the rolling pin over the cheese, gently pressing the cheese into the pastry. Fold the pastry in half, then cut each into 12 (1/2 inch) wide strips. Pinch the ends to seal, then gently twist each strip several times to enclose the cheese. It’s ok if some of the cheese falls out.
