Notes:
Bacon: If you’re using a thicker piece of bacon, cook the bacon for a few minutes beforehand to part-cook it. The bacon will cook completely after being baked in the oven.
Cheese: If you do not like strong cheeses you can go for a mild cheese instead of mature or extra mature.

Tips:
- Take your puff pastry out of the fridge for a least 15 minutes before unrolling. This is to prevent the pastry from breaking when unrolling. This happens when the pastry is too cold.
- Use puff pastry that is pre-rolled, buying a block of puff pastry means that you'll have to roll it out evenly. You can use a block of puff pastry; it just takes a bit longer and requires more effort.
- Leave the bacon and cheese puffs to cool down for 5 minutes before eating. Fresh from the oven the pastries will be soft, they will crisp-up after a few minutes.
