Tip
Previous tipAlways preheat your oven for a minimum of 15-20 minutes before baking, because Puff Pastry depends on even heat to rise and puff. Place pastries 1 inch apart.
To add special texture and flavor, sprinkle chopped nuts, seeds, ground spices or grated cheese on top.
Work with one Puff Pastry sheet at a time, keeping the others in the refrigerator.
If you don’t have a pastry brush, you can use the tip of a rolled-up paper towel or your fingertip to apply egg wash.
Recipe
Ingredients
-
1 egg
-
1 tbsp. water
-
All-purpose flour
-
1 pkg. (17.3 ounces) Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (2 sheets), thawed according to package directions
-
6 tbsp. sugar
-
1 pkg. (6 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate pieces (1 cup), melted
Directions
-
Heat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets. Stir the egg and water in small bowl with a fork.
-
Sprinkle the work surface with the flour. Unfold 1 pastry sheet on the floured surface. Roll the pastry into a 16 x 10-inch rectangle. Brush the pastry with the egg mixture and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Starting at the short sides, fold each side toward center, leaving a 1/4-inch space in the center. Brush the pastry with the egg mixture and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Fold one side over the other, making a 4-layer rectangle. Repeat with remaining pastry sheet.
-
Cut each rectangle into 12 (3/4-inch) slices, making 24 slices in all. Place the pastries cut-side down, 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops of the pastries with the egg mixture.
-
Bake the pastries for 12 minutes or until they're golden brown. Remove the pastries from the baking sheets and cool them on wire racks.
-
Dip half of each pastry into the melted chocolate. Place the pastries on waxed paper-lined baking sheets and refrigerate until the chocolate is set.
