Indulge in these sophisticated Anchovy Twist appetizers, where buttery, cream cheese-enriched pastry spirals around savory anchovy fillets. The delicate dough, chilled overnight for perfect texture, creates an elegant finger food with rich umami flavor in every bite. Perfect for cocktail parties or upscale gatherings, these make-ahead treasures can be stored for up to two weeks in a tightly covered tin – though they rarely last that long! An impressive appetizer that balances rich, salty and buttery notes beautifully.

Ingredients
8 ozs. soft cream cheese
1 c. soft butter or margarine
2 1/4 c. flour
4 2-oz. cans anchovy fillets (these are flat)
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 c. soft butter or margarine
2 1/4 c. flour
4 2-oz. cans anchovy fillets (these are flat)
1 egg, slightly beaten
Directions
- Beat cream cheese and butter together, stir in flour and mix well.
- Wrap dough in wax paper and chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Divide dough into quarters.
- Roll out one quarter on a lightly floured board to rectangle about 12 by 6 inches.
- Pat excess oil from one can of anchovy fillets and line up fillets in rows, 1/2 inch apart over half the dough.
- Moisten dough between fillets with water.
- Fold over the other half of dough and press down in between fillets, cut into sticks so that each one encloses an anchovy.
- Twist slightly and place on baking sheet.
- Repeat with remaining dough and anchovies.
- Brush with egg and bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned and done.
Note: These will keep in a tightly covered tin for two weeks.
