Yields 20-24 straws



Ingredients
1 (14 oz.) package frozen puff pastry, defrosted completely
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup Parmesan, grated
1/2 cup Gruyere, shredded or swiss
1 tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
flour, for dusting

Directions
1.Preheat oven to 375 F.
2.On 1 or 2 lightly floured piece(s) of parchment paper, roll out each sheet of puff pastry to a 10x12-inch rectangle that is 1/8-inch thick.
3.In a small bowl or glass, beat together your egg and water, and brush it onto the puff pastry.
4.In a medium bowl, combine cheeses, cayenne, salt and pepper. Toss to mix thoroughly.
5.Spread cheese mixture out over the puff pastry and gently press it into the pastry to adhere.
6.Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each sheet (horizontally) into 10-12 thin strips.
7.Spread apart each strip so there is 1-2 inches between them, twisting them before laying them back down on parchment paper.
8.Place in oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until puffed up and golden brown. Turn each straw over and return to bake for another 2 minutes.
9.Remove from oven and let cool before serving.
