It's Croissant Time!


Croissants are my favorite item on breakfast table! I was wondering would it be too tough to create these sinfully delights of my own? The recipe is incredibly easy and is a great way to start your weekend with a sip of coffee! 


Chocolate Chip Croissants 



Ingredients:

1. egg-1
2. Water- 1 tbsp
3. Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed
4. 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or small chocolate chunks
5. Butter for greasing

Process:

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Line two baking sheets with a little bit of butter greased.

3. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork or whisk then set aside.


4.Lightly flour your work surface. Unfold the pastry sheet then lightly dust top with flour. Use a rolling pin to roll the sheet into a 16-inch square.

5. Cut pastry square in half then cut each half into four rectangles (making eight, 8-inch by 4-inch rectangles).

6. Now, cut each rectangle diagonally into two triangles (making 16 triangles).

7. Place about 2 teaspoons of the chocolate chips down the center of each triangle. Then, starting at the wider end, roll each triangle up. Place each croissant seam-side down so that the tip of the triangle is tucked under the rolled croissant. Then, bend in the edges, creating a crescent shape.

8. Lightly brush tops of croissants with egg wash. Now, bake 20 to 25 minutes or until they are golden brown.

Serving tips: Swirl chocolate syrup & whipped cream on top of it and enjoy with fresh berries with a sip of tea/coffee.

Enjoy.
