For an extra layer of flavor, try using garlic-infused olive oil.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, Asiago, or even a smoked Gouda would be delicious.
If you want a little heat, add a dash of hot sauce to the olive oil before brushing it on the pastry.
These cheese sticks are best served warm and fresh from the oven.
