Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package store-bought croissant dough
- 12 pieces fun-size candy bars (e.g. Snickers, Twix, or Milky Way)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the croissant dough and separate it into the pre-cut triangles.
Place one fun-size candy bar in the center of the wide end of each triangle.
Carefully roll the dough around the candy bar, starting from the wide end and working your way to the tip, forming a crescent shape. Tuck in the edges to fully enclose the candy bar.
Place the rolled croissants on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1-2 inches apart.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Lightly brush the surface of each croissant with the egg wash for a golden-brown finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the croissants are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the croissants cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
If desired, dust the croissants with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Serve warm, and enjoy the gooey candy bar center wrapped in flaky croissant layers!
