Debbiebillg just use whatever you have but be aware that you may not need the full amount. Just keep an eye on it when mixing and when it clumps together that is enough. The spreadable cheese is more 'liquidy' than the others.  I've used it and it's fine if you keep an eye on it. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks so much Cookie1. I have since made it and it seemed fine but when I looked more closely I used the Woolworths Home Brand cream cheese which comes in a tub like the philly spreadable, in hindsight it might not be the spreadable one as it is quite hard.  The pastry's in the fridge at the moment and it all came together well so should be fine.

Thanks for your help though, I'll let you know how it goes.  I normally use the frozen puff pastry so will be interesting what we all think of this pastry. Great recipe.

The pastry was lovely, we all loved it. The kids demolished the quiche, so will be using this recipe again for sure. Thank you.

Thanks Cookie! This sounds healthier than the Sour Cream Pastry that I usually make!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

You can if you normally do. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. Sorry not much help to you.

I don't usually blind bake first. I do tend to cook the quiche on 170 degrees, otherwise the filing is too well brown and the pastry not cooked. Hope this helps.

Have just made this pastry and the quiche is cooking in the oven.  The pastry was a dream to work with.  Thank-you so much for the recipe.
