Yield Makes 24 hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 puff pastry sheet (from one 17 1/4-ounce package frozen puff pastry sheets), thawed
an egg wash made by beating 1 large egg yolk with 1 teaspoon water
1/4 pound chilled Stilton cheese
1/2 cup quince jam*
*available at specialty foods shops.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. and lightly butter a baking sheet.
  • On a lightly floured surface cut out 24 pastry rounds from pastry sheet with a 1 1/2-inch round cutter and arrange 1 inch apart on baking sheet. Brush tops of rounds with some egg wash (be careful not to drip down sides of rounds) and bake in middle of oven until puffed and golden brown, about 12 minutes (rounds will puff unevenly). Transfer rounds with a spatula to a rack and cool slightly. Trim bottoms of rounds if necessary to create level pastries and cool completely on rack. Pastry rounds may be made 2 days ahead and kept in a sealable plastic bag at room temperature.
  • Break Stilton into 24 small pieces (about 1/4 inch) and bring to room temperature. Top each pastry round with 1 piece Stilton and 1/2 teaspoon jam and serve at room temperature.

I'm not a fan of puff pastry, but I really enjoyed these pastries. The filling is creamy and flavorful and the pastry is flaky and light.

These pastries are a great way to use up leftover stilton and quince jam. They're also a great appetizer for a party.

These pastries are a bit too rich for my taste, but they're still very good. I think I would prefer them with a less濃厚な filling.

I made these pastries for my wife's birthday and she loved them. They're the perfect combination of sweet and savory.

These pastries are so cute and they taste even better than they look. I love the little dollops of quince jam on top.

I've never had stilton and quince jam together before, but it works surprisingly well. These pastries are a great way to try something new.

These pastries are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort. They're perfect for a special occasion or a holiday party.

I'm not a huge fan of blue cheese, but I really enjoyed these pastries. The quince jam mellows out the sharpness of the stilton and creates a really nice balance of flavors.
