Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- Flour, for dusting surface
- 1 (14-ounce) package puff pastry, thawed if frozen
- 4-ounces (1/2 block) cold Neufchatel cheese
- 1/2 cup pepper jelly
- Hot honey, for drizzling
- 2 teaspoons fresh chopped rosemary, for garnish
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 F. Spray with nonstick cooking spray (24-cup) mini muffin pan.
- On a clean work surface lightly dusted with flour, spread out puff pastry and cut into 24 equal pieces. Place each piece in prepared cups, pushing down into cup.
- Bake the puff pastry until light golden and puffed, approximately 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Push the middle of each pastry down to make room for the cheese.
- Cut the Neufchatel into 24 even cubes. Press a piece of the cheese into the center of each puff pastry. Top each cheese cube with around 1 heaping teaspoon of pepper jelly.
- Put puff pastry bites back into the oven and continue to bake until the puff pastry is golden brown and the cheese is warmed through, approximately 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for around 10 minutes.
- Place the bites onto a platter and drizzle a little hot honey over the bites, followed by the chopped rosemary.
