Roquefort And Walnut Pinwheels
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 100-150 grams roquefort cheese, crumbled
- 2 handfuls walnuts, chopped
- Take the cheese out of the fridge about 15 minutes before using to allow it to soften a bit.
- Roll out your puff pastry in a large rectangle, about 0,5cm/1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the cheese evenly over the pastry and top with the chopped nuts.
- Roll as tightly as possible (think Swiss roll-tight).
- Lay your roll on a baking dish and pop it in the fridge for about 10 minutes to allow the butter in the pastry to harden again. This will make the cutting part easier.
- Preheat your oven to 200u0b0C/400u0b0F and line 2 baking sheets with baking paper.
- Take your roll out of the fridge and cut it into 1cm/1/2 inch thick slices.
- Place the slices on the paper-lined baking sheets and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until just golden. Do not allow to brown as it might burn the cheese and walnuts.
- Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
