Googly Eyes

Ingredients

1 (17.25 ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed

2 tsp. Rustic Herb Seasoning

1 cup finely shredded Swiss cheese

60 medium-size pimento-stuffed green olives (two 7 oz. jars)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Unfold both pastry sheets; lay flat on a work surface. Sprinkle half of Rustic Herb Seasoning and half of cheese over each sheet; cut each pastry sheet into strips about 6 inches long and 3/4 inch wide (about 30 strips per sheet). Roll each pasty strip around an olive with the pimento side up. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. If olives pop out of pastry, just press them back into warm googly eyes. Makes 60 eyes.
