Basil Cheese Triangles

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil leaves, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

3. Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the pastry sheet into 12 equal squares.

4. Spoon a tablespoon of the cheese and basil mixture onto the center of each pastry square.

5. Fold each pastry square in half diagonally to create a triangle shape. Use a fork to crimp the edges of the triangles to seal in the filling.

6. Place the filled triangles onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.

7. Brush the tops of the triangles with the beaten egg to create a golden, shiny finish when baked.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the triangles are puffed up and golden brown.

9. Remove from the oven and let the Basil Cheese Triangles cool slightly before serving.
