These twists look fantastic. I'd do something that would satisfy my sweet tooth... maybe sprinkle the twists with cinnamon sugar and then drizzle with caramel.

I'm super in to blue cheese right now so I think I would do a steak and blue cheese twist or pinwheel with the puff pastry. I think it would be perfect for game day and men and women would both enjoy it!
