bundles |
1 sheet puff pastry |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon heavy cream |
8 chocolate kisses (recommended: hershey's) |
8 miniature chocolate candy bars |
ganache |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
4 ounces milk chocolate, broken into small pieces |
sweetened whipped cream, optional |
fresh strawberries, sliced, for garnish |
mint sprigs, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Bundles: 2. - 3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 4. Unfold puff pastry and cut the sheet into 2 (4 by 4-inch squares). Beat eggs and cream together to create an egg wash. 5. Brush pastry squares with egg wash. Place 2 chocolate kisses and 1 mini candy bar in the center of each pastry square. 6. Repeat with remaining kisses and mini-bars. 7. Pull corners of the square up around the chocolate, brushing edges with more egg wash, if necessary, to create a secure bundle. Brush exteriors of chocolate bundles with more egg wash. 8. Repeat with remaining bundles. 9. Place bundles on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until golden brown. 10. - 11. Ganache: 12. - 13. In a sauce pan bring the heavy cream to a boil. Place the chocolate pieces in a bowl and pour hot cream over top. Whisk until smooth. 14. Puddle ganache onto a plate and place 1 bundle on top. Top with whipped cream and additional ganache, if desired. 15. Serve bundles garnished with strawberry slices and mint sprigs. |
