I combined this with a recipe I already had and made some changes suggested by other reviews. I rolled out the pastry sheet to a 10X14 rectangle, increasing the Italian cheese blend to 1 cup along with the 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese and reduced the paprika to 1/4 teaspoon because the cooked cheese had an unappealing red color when I used 1 teaspoon. I also added 1 teaspoon garlic powder. I folded it in this way - the long ends over each other like folding a letter and then folded it once more in half. I cut them in 1/4 inch slices, brushed them with the remaining egg wash and baked at 375 for 25 minutes. They are much better than the simple Parmesan cheese Palmiers that I usually make. I don't feel comfortable giving it 5 stars when I made so many changes to the original recipe.

this was one of the best things i've made of hers!! these palmiers were FANTASTIC! i did however add more cheese and i used parm, asaigo, sharp cheddar, mozz, and some italian blend. i also diced up some pancetta and crisped it up and sprinkled it on the dough before rolling it up along with some fresh grated garlic. AMAZING! i'll be making this over and over again. could not stop eating it. even my 1 yr old son loved it. thanks sandra!

This is such a great recipe. Have been making this for all my parties and even for the potluck party at work. Everyone loves them and I love how easy it is to make and how great they look.
