You are going to have to trust me here. This is not the most beautiful dish that I have ever made for you. It is monochromatic and looks pretty boring. It is also one of the things that I make and people immediately ask for the recipe. It is Gouda cheese, mustard, and puff pastry. That is it. It is where I think that Gouda wants to go when it dies. It’s that Gouda. I could not help myself. I am a dork.
My best friend in the entire world lives in Ohio and I miss her terribly. We talk a few times a week, but I miss being around her. She is awesome. She also makes awesome appetizers. She is kind of famous for them. I have never met anyone that can whip up a dip, or something wrapped in something else delicious like she can. This is one of her infamous appetizers that I have eaten at her house countless times. It is so easy and so good. As good as it is when I make it, it is even better when she makes it because that means that she and I are together and not on opposite sides of the country.
I should also mention that she makes hers with Crescent Roll dough, I had puff pastry that I needed to use. Either way delicious.

Gouda in Puff Pastry Ingredients //
- One sheet of thawed puff pastry
- Gouda cheese (try it with Old Amsterdam, it is an aged Gouda that is divine)
- Spicy brown mustard
- Sliced apples for serving
How to Make // The Steps
Step 1: Roll out the puff pastry on a well-floured board. Put the puff pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make slits in the puff pastry like pictured above. You are going to overlap the strips to close the puff pastry.

Step 2: Squeeze some mustard down the middle of the puff pastry. About 2 Tablespoons.

Step 3: Spread the mustard out using a pastry brush.

Step 4: Arrange the Gouda slices evenly on top of the mustard.

Step 5: Overlap the strips of puff pastry.

Step 6: Whisk together the egg and a few teaspoons of water.

Step 7: Brush the egg wash over the braided puff pastry.

Step 8: Seal the ends.

Step 9:
Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.

Step 10: Serve with sliced apples.

Make one and share it with your best friend.
