Indulge in the perfect combination of buttery, flaky croissants, smooth dark chocolate, and crunchy pistachios. These Chocolate Croissants with Pistachio and Dark Chocolate Drizzle are a decadent treat that brings a touch of elegance to any breakfast, brunch, or dessert table. The crispy, golden layers of puff pastry pair perfectly with the rich chocolate and nutty pistachios, making every bite irresistible.
Ingredients:
1 package of puff pastry dough (thawed, if frozen)
100g (3.5 oz) dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces (reserve a bit for drizzling)
¼ cup pistachios, finely chopped
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
1 tablespoon butter (optional, for extra richness)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the croissants from sticking.
Prepare the Puff Pastry:
Roll out the thawed puff pastry dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness.
Cut the dough into triangles (about 6-8 inches wide at the base).
Add Chocolate and Pistachios:
Place a few small pieces of dark chocolate at the wide base of each triangle.
Sprinkle a small amount of chopped pistachios over the chocolate for added crunch and flavor.
Roll the Croissants:
Starting from the base, roll up each triangle tightly into a croissant shape.
Tuck the ends underneath slightly to keep the filling secure.
Brush with Egg Wash:
Place the rolled croissants on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the top of each croissant with the beaten egg to create a golden, shiny finish when baked.
Bake:
