Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) or 200°C (390°F) for non-fan settings.
  2. Unroll your sheets of puff pastry on a clean surface. Drizzle honey generously across both layers.
  3. Sprinkle the crushed walnuts, blue cheese, and grated Parmesan evenly over the pastry. Add fresh thyme leaves and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Carefully roll each puff pastry sheet tightly and cut each log in half lengthwise.
  5. Place the pastry strips on a baking sheet and gently twist each strip to create a spiraled effect.
  6. Brush tops of the twisted pastry shapes with milk and bake for about 25-30 minutes, until golden.
  7. Let them cool slightly and garnish with extra thyme before serving warm.
