Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan) or 400°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and unroll the puff pastry sheet.
Spread the Marmite evenly across the puff pastry, using the back of a spoon or a spatula. Adjust the amount of Marmite to your taste if necessary.
Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the Marmite-covered pastry, ensuring even distribution.
Starting from one of the longer edges, tightly roll up the pastry into a log shape. Use gentle but firm pressure to ensure a tight roll.
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 12 equal pieces, about 1.5 cm thick each.
Place the slices flat onto the prepared baking tray, leaving a little space between them to allow for expansion during baking.
Brush the tops of the whirls with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow the whirls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
