SAUSAGE PARMESAN PALMIERS

Steps:

• Put the butter and onions in a skillet over medium heat and brown the onions until dark, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Add the sausage to the same skillet and crumble; cook until done, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Roll the pastry out to 10 by 12 inches. Sprinkle the cheese over the pastry, then the sausage, then the onions. Roll both sides toward the center of the rectangle until they touch. Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes or place in the freezer for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Slice the pastry into 1/3-inch slices and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets. Mix together the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl and brush the mixture over the top of the slices. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

CHEESE PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a saucepan, heat the milk, butter, salt, pepper, and nutmeg over medium heat, until scalded. Add the flour all at once and beat it vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together. Cook, stirring constantly, over low heat for 2 minutes. The flour will begin to coat the bottom of the pan. Dump the hot mixture into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Immediately add the eggs, Gruyere, and Parmesan and pulse until the eggs are incorporated and the dough is smooth and thick.
• Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large plain round tip. Pipe in mounds 1 1/4 inches wide and 3/4-inch high onto the baking sheets. With a wet finger, lightly press down the swirl at the top of each puff. (You can also use 2 spoons to scoop out the mixture and shape the puffs with damp fingers.) Brush the top of each puff lightly with egg wash and sprinkle with a pinch of Gruyere. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown outside but still soft inside.
