Steps: |
| -Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. |
| -In a bowl, combine the paprika and the cheese. |
| -On a lightly floured work surface, roll the puff pastry into a large rectangle (12 x 16 inches). |
| -Brush the pastry with the beaten egg. Sprinkle the cheese mix onto the pastry. Press down on the cheese to make sure it sticks. |
| -Fold the long end of the pastry in half as you would close a book. |
| -Roll the pastry again into a large rectangle (12 x 16 inches). |
| -Place the pastry onto a wax paper-lined baking sheet and into the freezer for about 15 minutes. |
| -Place the pastry onto your work surface. With a sharp knife, trim the edges even. |
| -Cut the pastry into strips about 1/2-inch wide. |
| -Place a hand on both ends of the pastry. Roll forward with one hand and backward with the other until a noticeable spiral pattern occurs. |
| -Return the straws to a sheet pan. Freeze until solid (about 10 minutes). |
| -Bake the straws at 425 degrees about 12 minutes or until lightly golden. |
