Crispy Cheese Sticks with Puff Pastry & Parmesan

These cheese sticks remind me of cozy Saturday nights, watching TV with my family and enjoying a big plate of these warm, flaky treats. They’re also a classic party snack—they disappear within minutes whenever I serve them!

Parmesan gives them that deep, savory flavor, but if you want something different, try Gruyère or Emmental for a slightly nuttier taste. Want even more flavor? Sprinkle them with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or a pinch of cumin before baking. No matter how you make them, these puff pastry sticks will always be a hit!

Notes

1. Want extra crunch?  Brush with egg wash and sprinkle extra cheese on both sides before baking.

2. No Parmesan?  Try Gruyère, Cheddar, or a mix of cheeses for a different flavor.

3. Can I make these ahead of time?  Yes! Bake them and store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350 °F (180 °C) oven for 5 minutes.

4. Freezing tip?  Freeze unbaked sticks on a tray, then transfer them to a bag. Bake from frozen, adding 2 extra minutes.
