Chocolate Croissants

  • Preparation Time20 mins
  • Cooking Time15 mins
  • Serves12
  • DifficultyEasy
1 (370g) packet ready rolled butter puff pastry
100g chocolate (milk or dark depending on taste)
1 egg beaten
Preheat the oven to 220°C/gas 7. Unfurl the sheet of pastry and then cut it into 6 squares.

Cut each square diagonally to give 2 triangles (they will appear quite small). Put the triangle with the wider part facing you and the point away from you.

Break off small pieces of chocolate (approx 1-cm) to place about 2-cm up from the wide end nearest you.

Then carefully roll from that chocolate loaded end towards the point of the triangle.

You should now have something resembling a straight croissant, seal it slightly with your fingertips and curl it around into a crescent.

Place the chocolate croissants on a lined baking tray and paint with the beaten egg. Bake for 15 minutes until golden and puffy and exuberantly, if miniature, croissant-like.
