Ingredients:
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
1 cup shredded mozzarella or Gruyère cheese
1 egg, beaten
2 tbsp sugar (optional for a sweet touch)

1. Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
Roll out the puff pastry sheet and cut it into triangles.
3. Add the Cheese:
Place a generous amount of shredded cheese at the wide end of each triangle. Roll tightly towards the tip to form a croissant shape.
4. Brush with Egg:
Arrange the croissants on the baking tray, seam-side down. Brush each one with beaten egg for a golden crust.
5. Optional Sweet Touch:
Sprinkle a bit of sugar on top for a sweet-salty flavor contrast, if desired.
