Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions and gently roll them out on a lightly floured surface.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares, resulting in a total of 8 squares.
Place a small handful (about 1 tablespoon) of chocolate chips and 2-3 fresh raspberries in the center of each square.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each square with the egg wash, then fold the squares into triangles by bringing opposite corners together.
Press the edges firmly to seal, using a fork to crimp the edges and ensure no filling spills out.
Place the sealed pillows onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Brush the tops of the pastries with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pillows are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool slightly on a wire rack.
Dust the tops with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant touch.
