* Exported from MasterCook * Bacon-Almond-Cheese Triangles* Recipe By : Serving Size : 96 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Appetizers Bacon Cheese Nuts Onions Volume 3, Dec. '98 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 pound shredded cheddar cheese 12 slices bacon -- cooked/crumbled 8 oz. sliced almonds 1 1/3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 1 medium onion minced 2 cups mayonnaise (I use Hellmans) 24 slices firm sandwich bread -- decrusted Decrust bread and toast on one side under the broiler. Combine all ingredients. Spread filling on untoasted side of bread evenly to edges. Flash freeze 1 hour, transfer to bags and return to freezer. Bake frozen pieces in a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes until bread is firm and golden and cheese starts to melt. Cut in quarters and serve. ( Hint: Sometimes I think it's easier to quarter them while they are frozen. Then the only trick is to keep them as close together as possible so the filling doesn't ooze off the edges. Makes 96 pieces. Posted to FareShare 12-98 by muckerheide@mediaone.net - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

'98 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 large egg 2 tablespoons water 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan 1 cup finely crumbled blue cheese (any type) 1 pound pkg. frozen puff pastry -- thawed/unfolded Paprika for sprinkling over pastry Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray. In a small bowl, beat together the egg and water to make an egg wash; set aside. In another bowl, toss together the Parmesan and blue cheeses; set aside. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each puff pastry sheet into a 14-by-10-inch rectangle. Brush both of the pastry sheets to the edges with the egg wash and sprinkle with paprika. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over one of the pastry sheets and top with the other pastry sheet, egg wash side down. Roll out the pastry with a rolling pin to flatten slightly. Cut the pastry in half horizontally with a sharp knife and then lengthwise into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Carefully pick up a stick and, with both hands, twist to form a spiral (left hand counter-clockwise, right hand clockwise). Arrange cheese straws about 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets, pressing ends onto the sheets. Bake until golden and puffed, about 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool before removing to a serving dish. Makes about 56 cheese straws; analysis based on 1 straw. Cook's note: Cheese straws can be made ahead and frozen until ready to use or baked up to two days ahead and kept in an airtight container. To recrisp them, place in a 400-degree oven until heated through, about 3-5 minutes.
