Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- ½ cup (120 ml) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup (50 g) brown sugar
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
Finishing Ingredients:
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Craft a pristine baking canvas by warming the oven to 375F (190C) and draping a parchment sheet across your baking tray.
- Transform the puff pastry into a smooth landscape by gently rolling it on a flour-dusted surface, eliminating any stubborn creases.
- Orchestrate a decadent filling by whisking chocolate chips with brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture achieves a harmonious blend.
- Artfully distribute the rich chocolate concoction across half the pastry sheet, then tenderly fold the remaining pastry over, creating a delectable envelope of sweetness.
- With surgical precision, slice the folded pastry into slender 1-inch strips, gracefully twisting each one to form elegant spirals that dance across the baking sheet, positioned with a gentle 1-inch separation.
- Bestow a lustrous golden sheen by delicately brushing each twist with beaten egg, then nestle the tray into the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until they emerge bronzed and magnificently puffed.
- Grant the twists a moment to cool, optionally crowning them with a delicate snowfall of powdered sugar. Serve these golden treasures warm or at ambient temperature, inviting immediate indulgence.
Notes
- Flour your surface generously to prevent sticking and ensure smooth pastry rolling.
- Chill the chocolate mixture briefly to make spreading easier and prevent pastry from becoming too warm.
- Twist strips gently to maintain pastry layers and create an elegant, defined spiral shape.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for richer, more intense chocolate flavor in the filling.
