Preparation
-
Step 1 Prepare the Filling
- In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and cream cheese until smooth.
-
Stir in the chopped chives and season with black pepper.
-
Step 2 Assemble the Roses
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Unroll the puff pastry and cut lengthwise into 6 equal strips.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each strip.
- Cut the Alaska smoked salmon into thin strips and arrange along the length of each pastry strip.
- Fold the pastry over the salmon so the salmon is partially covered.
- Starting at one end, gently roll each strip into a rose shape.
-
Step 3 Bake the Roses
- Place the pastry roses in a muffin tin lined with parchment paper liners.
- Bake for 30 minutes, covering loosely with aluminum foil halfway through baking to prevent the salmon from over-browning.
- Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
-
Step 4 Serve
- Allow the smoked salmon roses to cool for a few minutes.
- Serve warm as an appetizer or party snack.
