Ingredients

  • 10 oz puff pastry Note 2
  • ½ cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate Note 3
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon water or milk

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F/ 200°C. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the puff pastry sheet on the working surface. Cut it into triangles.10 oz puff pastry
  3. Fill with chocolate: Place some chocolate at the base of each triangle. I had 10 nice triangles and used the edges to form croissants as well.½ cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  4. Roll each piece of dough starting at the wider end. Place them seam-side down on the baking sheet, ensuring the tip of the triangle is tucked underneath the roll. Gently bend the ends to form a crescent shape.
  5. Egg brush: In a small bowl, beat the egg and water or milk with a fork. Brush the croissants with the mixture.1 egg + 1 tablespoon water
  6. Bake chocolate puff pastry for 17 - 20 minutes or until deeply golden.

Notes

  • The recipe can be easily doubled. You will not need an extra egg to brush the pastry if you double the recipe; one egg should be enough for 2-3 batches.
  • Puff pastry: I use refrigerated ready-rolled puff pastry, about 10 inches/ 25 cm long; a little more or less is fine. Frozen pastry works great, too - just thaw and roll it (if needed) according to the package instructions.
  • Chocolate: You can use milk, plain, semi-sweet chocolate, or dark chocolate, whatever you like.
