The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

ingredients
1 package frozen puff pastry, thawed for half an hour
all-purpose flour, as needed
1/3 pound Spanish chorizo, cut into 1/4-inch rounds
1/4 pound manchego cheese, grated
1 egg
1 tablespoon milk
directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Unfold each sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Cut each sheet into nine 3x3-inch squares.
Roll out each square to 4x4-inches with a floured rolling pin.
Whisk together the egg and milk in a bowl until blended.
On each puff pastry square, add a couple pieces of chorizo and a pinch of cheese. Brush the edges of the square with the egg mixture. Fold up one corner of the square to form a triangle and press the edges to seal.
Place the filled puff pastries on a baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining egg wash. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes or until puffy and golden brown.
Serve hot.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I grew up eating this dish, I have used it for party appitizers and a quick snack for my family. Try different cheeses as well like, Havarti, Swiss, and NY Extra shrap Cheddar, for best results use Cracker Barrel Cheese, cut the slices in half and bake with hot dog, before you enclose them into the biscuits.
