Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Combine softened cream cheese, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, sliced jalapenos, and garlic powder in a mixing bowl and mix until smooth.

Roll out the thawed puff pastry to approximately 1/4 inch thick and slice into 2-inch wide strips.

Spoon a generous dollop of the cheese mixture onto one half of a pastry strip, fold over, pinch to seal, and twist.

Place the twisted pastries on the baking sheet, brush with the egg wash, and bake for 15-20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Let the twists cool slightly before serving warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
