Alright, let's talk about cheese twists, the snack that's equal parts crunchy, cheesy, and downright addictive. Imagine flaky pastry swirled with gooey cheese, baked to golden perfection. These twists are like the overachieving cousin of plain breadsticks bringing all the buttery vibes, sharp cheese flavors, and snackable energy you didn't know you needed. A killer cheese twists recipe starts with puff pastry (aka the shortcut to snack stardom) and loads of cheese. Go for a sharp cheddar if you're feeling classic, or mix it up with Parmesan, Gruyère, or even a spicy jalapeño jack for a little flair. Sprinkle on some garlic powder, paprika, or fresh herbs to make it fancy without the extra effort. Twist ‘em up, pop ‘em in the oven, and prepare to fill your kitchen with the kind of aroma that makes neighbors “accidentally” drop by. The best part? These cheese twists are wildly versatile. Serve them at a party for some instant finger-food cred, dunk them in marinara or ranch for the ultimate snack duo, or pair them with soup or salad to add a little crunch to your lunch. Bonus points: they're freezer-friendly, so you can bake a batch, save a stash, and always be snack-prepped. So, whether you're hosting, chilling, or just craving something extra, this cheese twists recipe is here to upgrade your snack game. Get your twist on and thank us later.

Cooking steps for Cheese Twists
- 1Alright, cheese lovers, it's time to crank up the deliciousness with these buttery, flaky cheese twists the perfect mix of golden, cheesy goodness and crispy, snackable vibes.
- 2This cheese twists recipe is as fun to make as it is to eat, so grab your ingredients and let's twist and shout (in the kitchen, obviously).
- 3First, preheat your oven to 200 C (or 400 F for my non-metric pals) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- 4In a bowl, toss together 150 g plain flour and 75 g salted butter, cutting the butter into the flour until the mix looks like coarse crumbs think beach sand but edible and way tastier.
- 5Keep the butter cold for those flaky layers we're aiming for. Next, crack 1 egg into a separate bowl, add 1 tablespoon milk, and whisk it like your weekend brunch depends on it. Pour the egg-milk combo into the flour mix and gently bring it all together into a soft dough. Don't overmix; we're going for delicate, not dense.
- 6On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 5 mm thick.
- 7Now comes the star of the show—sprinkle 100 g grated cheddar cheese and 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese over half the dough like you're making it rain cheese (the dream, honestly).
- 8Fold the other half of the dough over the cheesy layer, sandwiching it in, and roll lightly to seal the deal. Cut the dough into strips about 1 cm wide and give each strip a playful twist—you're basically making tiny cheese spirals that are almost too cute to eat (almost). Lay your twists on the baking sheet, leaving a little room between them for puffing magic.
- 9Brush the tops with any leftover egg wash to get that Insta-worthy golden finish. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until your kitchen smells like a cheese factory and the twists are crisp, golden, and begging to be devoured.
- 10Cool them for a hot second before diving in—just enough so you don't burn your fingers.
- 11And boom! Your recipe of cheese twists is ready to steal the show at snack time, party spreads, or as a solo treat-yourself moment. Cheesy, crispy, and totally irresistible—get ready for repeat requests because these twists are iconic!
