@theactualansley: Pimento Cheese Puff Pastry Tart I'm an appetizer girl through and through, so when I tell you this is officially in the running for one of the top 10 best things I've ever made, I mean it. We absolutely devoured it and have already decided it'll be making a weekly appearance around here. I genuinely don't know how an appetizer gets much better than this. Recipe below or on my Substack (link in bio - click “full recipes”). Ingredients: 1 sheet all-butter puff pastry, thawed 1 cup store bought pimento cheese (I use Palmetto Cheese) 10-15 pickle chips, patted dry 4 slices bacon, cooked until crisp and chopped (about ¼ cup) 1 egg 1 tablespoon water Optional for serving: Hot honey Flaky salt Instructions: Preheat your oven to 400°F degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cook the bacon until crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then chop into small crumbles. Lightly roll the puff pastry to smooth the folds, then place it on the prepared baking sheet. Using a knife, score a 1-inch border around the edge, being careful not to cut all the way through the pastry. Dock the center all over with a fork. Spread the pimento cheese evenly inside the border. Arrange the pickles over pimento cheese, pressing them into the filling. Whisk together the egg and water, then brush the border with the egg wash. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and deeply golden brown. While the tart is still warm, sprinkle with the bacon crumbles. Drizzle with hot honey and flaky salt, if desired. Slice and enjoy immediately! #PimentoCheese #SouthernAppetizers #PuffPastryRecipe #EasyAppetizer #SummerEntertaining
