These golden twists are always popular. We like them along-side chili and soup. My husband and daughter usually try to sneak a few from the cooling rack when I make them.

These cheese twists are a great way to use up leftover cheese. I always have a few blocks of cheese in my fridge, so this recipe is perfect for me.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheese twists turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't use enough butter.

I love the combination of flavors in these cheese twists. The cheese is salty and savory, and the pastry is sweet and flaky.

These cheese twists are a bit greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.

These cheese twists were a bit too brown for my taste. I think I'll bake them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I'm not a huge fan of cheese, but I really enjoyed these twists. The pastry was flaky and the cheese was gooey and flavorful.

These cheese twists were so easy to make! I had them in the oven in less than 10 minutes. And they were done in just 15 minutes.

I found this recipe to be a bit too bland. I added some garlic powder and paprika to the cheese mixture, and that really kicked up the flavor.
