Puff pastry with cheese
Description
Every time I visit different establishments, I order these sticks for myself. So why not make them at home, especially since it's easier than it might seem. I use different types of cheese—it's much tastier and more interesting this way. You can make puff pastry from scratch, but as always, there's not enough time, so I bought ready-made dough. Serve them warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
