Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare Puff Pastry: Unroll the mini puff pastry sheets onto a clean surface. Cut them into bite-sized squares or circles, depending on your preference.
  3. Make Filling: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan, crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  4. Assemble: Spoon a small amount of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each puff pastry square. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a small pocket or twist. Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
  5. Bake: Place the assembled appetizers on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
  6. Garnish & Serve: Once baked, remove the appetizers from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately as the perfect bite-sized party treats.
