Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet into a large rectangle, approximately 12 x 16 inches.
Cut the rectangle into 6 equal pieces, each about 4 x 6 inches.
Place a piece of chocolate (about two sticks) along one short edge of each rectangle.
Top the chocolate with a few fresh raspberries.
Fold the pastry over the chocolate and raspberries, tucking them in snugly, and roll it up into a log. Place the seam side down on the baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash.
Brush the tops of each roll with the egg wash. Optionally, sprinkle a little granulated sugar on top for added sweetness and crunch.
Bake the croissants in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
