1 sheet frozen puff pastry defrosted according to package directions and kept cold
1 cup (100 grams) gruyere or white cheddar cheese, cut into small squares
2 teaspoons chives chopped
1 egg beaten
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary finely chopped

Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll the puff pastry out onto a floured surface to a square or rectangle shape. Cut squares that are 1 1/2-inches (3 ½ cm) in diameter.
Place a piece of cheese in the center of the pasry square. Sprinkle with chives and wrap the pastry tightly around the cheese with the seam on the bottom. Place on the baking sheet. Repeat until all the pastry is used.
Brush all the puffs with the egg wash and sprinkle the rosemary on the top.
Bake for 20-22 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Serve immediately.
