Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 grams All-purpose flour
- 200 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 120 milliliters Cold water
- 1 large Egg
- 100 grams Dark chocolate chips
- 30 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough starts to come together. Knead the dough lightly into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Fold it into thirds like a letter and roll it out again. Repeat this process three times to ensure flaky layers.
Cut the pastry into 12 equal rectangles and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and brush the tops of the pastry rectangles with the egg wash.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the pastries are golden brown and puffed.
While the pastries are baking, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl using 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
Once the pastries have cooled slightly, drizzle the melted chocolate over each pastry using a spoon or a piping bag.
In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and vanilla extract with a teaspoon or two of water to create a glaze. Drizzle this glaze over the chocolate-top pastries for an added touch of sweetness.
Allow the chocolate and glaze to set for a few minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your nut-free chocolate drizzled pastries!
