VERMONT CHEDDAR CHEESE AND HERBED TWISTS

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients in small bowl.
• Roll out puff pastry on lightly floured work surface to 18x10-inch rectangle (pastry will be thin). Sprinkle 1/3 of cheese mixture evenly over half of pastry; fold plain half of pastry over cheese, forming 10x9-inch rectangle; press to adhere. Repeat 2 more times, rolling to 18x10-inch rectangle, sprinkling with 1/3 of cheese mixture, and folding. Roll out pastry again to 18x10-inch rectangle. Transfer to unlined baking sheet. Chill 30 minutes.
• Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Cut pastry crosswise in half, forming two 10x9-inch rectangles. Trim and discard uneven edges of pastry. Cut each rectangle crosswise into scant 1/2-inch-wide strips. Twist each strip a few times and place on prepared baking sheets, spacing 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch apart, dabbing ends lightly with water and pressing to adhere to parchment.
• Bake twists until golden brown, reversing position of sheets halfway through baking, about 10 minutes total. Cool twists on sheets. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover twists on sheets tightly with foil and store at room temperature. If desired, rewarm uncovered in 350°F oven until heated through, about 5 minutes.)
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

THYME-CHEDDAR TWISTS

Steps:

• Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it registers 110 degrees on an instant-read thermometer; transfer to a bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons sugar. Sprinkle with yeast; let mixture stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
• Process flour, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, salt, and butter pieces in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk mixture and the yolks; process until combined. Transfer to a well-oiled bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to form a 15-by-18-inch rectangle. Brush surface with melted butter. Sprinkle dough evenly with cheese, thyme, and pepper.
• Fold dough in half horizontally. Roll out to form a 10-by-18-inch rectangle. Cut into 10-inch-long, 1/2-inch-wide strips.
• Twist 2 strips around each other; pinch edges to keep strips from unraveling. Shape twist to form a spiral; transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with remaining strips.
• Brush twists with egg wash. Bake until deep golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes.
