Tomato Tarts

Directions

2. 2
   Remove the puff pastry from the freezer and allow it to thaw for 20 minutes.
3. 3
   Unfold the pastry on the counter and roll down, using enough flour to prevent sticking.
4. 4
   Brush the dough with olive oil and, using a 1 1/2- or 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out rounds of dough.
5. 5
   Place the puff pastry rounds on the prepared baking sheet and poke the surface of the pastry with a fork.
6. 6
   Top each round with a small amount of the Cheddar, then with a tomato slice.
7. 7
   Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste over the tomato, and then sprinkle on a pinch of thyme and about 1 teaspoon of Parmesan.
8. 8
   Bake for about 15 minutes.
9. 9
   Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
