Tip
Previous tipHeat is the enemy of Puff Pastry—it handles best when cold. So avoid working with it on hot, humid days, in a stifling hot kitchen or next to your oven.
When serving Puff Pastry, cut with a serrated knife for the most even, attractive presentation.
Puff Pastry can puff up to 8 times its original thickness. That means even a sheet rolled to a thin ¼-inch thickness will rise 2 inches.
Use a marble pastry board to help keep Puff Pastry cold while rolling and cutting.

Recipe
Ingredients
-
1 egg
-
1 tbsp. water
-
1/2 of a 17.3 ounce package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed
-
2/3 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
Directions
-
Heat the oven to 350°F. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork or whisk.
-
Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry into a 16-inch square. Cut the pastry square into 8 (8 x 4-inch) rectangles. Cut the rectangles diagonally into 16 triangles. Arrange about 2 teaspoons chocolate chips down the center of each triangle. Starting at the wide end, roll each triangle up, bending the edges in to form a crescent. Place the pastries seam-side down on a baking sheet and brush with the egg mixture.
-
Bake the pastries for 20 minutes or until they're golden brown.

"I am not a dark or milk chocolate fan but my husband and daughter love it!! I did try one though and think it is pretty good. Not easy to get a 16-inch square but did my best and got 12 crescent out of 16, but still pretty easy to make."

"I am not a chocolate fan but my husband and daughter love it!! I did try one though and it was pretty good. I could get only 12 crescent wraps instead of 16, not easy to make a 16-inch square."
