If you are craving chocolate croissants, I have a perfect recipe for you that will remind you of a classic French treat. This Chocolate Puff Pastry recipe requires only 3 ingredients and will be ready in just 20 minutes.
As a result, you will have delicious layers of puff pastry, filled with gooey melted chocolate. This recipe will be perfect for breakfast, brunch, or for a dessert.
Ingredients and Substitution
- Puff Pastry. For best results, make sure you work with the dough fast, so it stays cold.
- Chocolate. I usually use baking chocolate in this recipe, but you can easily substitute it with regular chocolate or even chocolate chips.
- Egg. We need it for egg wash to brush the top of puff pastry to give it a nice golden color while baking. If you don’t have it or don’t want to use an egg, you can brush the dough with milk or just skip this step completely.
- Sugar. This ingredient is optional. After you brush the dough with egg wash, you can sprinkle a little bit of coarse sugar on top to give it some extra crisp.
How to defrost frozen puff pastry
The are two ways you can defrost frozen puff pastry.
First, you can put it in the refrigerator for about 6 hours.
The second and the easiest way is just to leave it on the countertop for about 30-40 minutes. If you choose this method, I prefer to check on the dough every 10 minutes and slowly unroll it as it gets warmer and more pliable. It still has to stay cold to get nice flaky layers.
How to make it
Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Lay a sheet of thawed puff pastry on a cutting board. Cut it in 6 equal rectangles and place the chocolate on the left side.
Fold the dough with chocolate and place it on a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk an egg in a bowl with a tablespoon of water and brush the tops of the puff pastry. As an option, you can also sprinkle over a tablespoon of coarse sugar.
