Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Allow the frozen puff pastry sheets to thaw according to package instructions (usually about 10-15 minutes).
Lightly dust your work surface with flour, then gently roll out each pastry sheet to slightly flatten them.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares, yielding a total of 8 squares.
Place about 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips and 3-4 fresh raspberries in the center of each square. Sprinkle a small pinch of granulated sugar over the filling.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the tablespoon of milk to create an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash, then fold one corner over to the opposite corner to create a triangle. Press the edges together firmly to seal.
Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch and ensure a tight seal.
Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart. Brush the tops of the turnovers with the remaining egg wash.
Using a sharp knife, make a small slit or two on the top of each turnover to allow steam to escape while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the turnovers are golden brown and puffed.
Remove the turnovers from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Optional: Dust the turnovers with powdered sugar before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
