Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality Parmesan cheese and prosciutto. Look for cheese that is aged at least 12 months and prosciutto that is thinly sliced and has a sweet, nutty flavor.
  • To make the assembly process easier, chill the puff pastry dough before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from becoming too sticky.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a glass jar to roll out the dough.
  • Be careful not to overcook the appetizers. They should be baked until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve the appetizers immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
