Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets (thawed)
- 180 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 30 grams powdered sugar
- 50 grams milk chocolate (optional, for drizzle)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Roll them out slightly to smooth the edges, then cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, giving you 8 squares total.
Place about 20-25 grams (about 1.5 tablespoons) of chocolate chips in the center of each square.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each puff pastry square lightly with the egg wash.
Fold the pastry square corners toward the center over the chocolate, pinching them together tightly to create a sealed bundle. Ensure there are no gaps where the filling may leak out.
Arrange the chocolate bundles on the prepared baking sheet at least 2 inches apart.
Brush the tops of the bundles with the remaining egg wash to help them brown beautifully in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the bundles are puffed and golden brown.
Allow the bundles to cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool further.
If desired, melt the milk chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second increments, stirring in between, until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the cooled bundles for added flavor and presentation.
Dust with powdered sugar just before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
