Cooking Instructions
- 1
Heat the oven to 350°F. Unfold the pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Roll each into a 10-inch square. Cut each into 4 (5-inch) squares, making 8 in all.
- 2
Place 2 tablespoons chocolate chips in the center of each pastry square. (Optional, for pinwheel: Cut into layered strips with chocolate chips and twist in round motion; OR for Twister Shape: Twist 2 layers twice and lay on the tray.) Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg. Fold each pastry over the chocolate chips and press to seal. Place the filled pastries onto baking sheets. Brush the pastries with the egg.
- 3
Bake for 15 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown. Let the pastries cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes. Remove the pastries from the baking sheets and let cool completely on wire racks. Cook and stir the remaining chocolate chips and the butter in a heavy 1-quart saucepan over low heat until the mixture is melted and smooth.

Optional Step: Stir in the confectioners' sugar. Stir in the water, adding additional water, if necessary, until desired consistency. Drizzle the icing over the pastries. Ta-daaaah!!! Enjoy!

Pain au Chocolat des Parisiennes Pain au Chocolat des Parisiennes
I saw this at a certain bakery, and fell in love with it at first sight.Bread dough with chocolate and cocoa kneaded into it doesn't stretch or rise well, and has a tendency to dry out easily. So I set the rising and resting times longer than usual. There are lot of steps and it takes time to make this, but they are worth it. Please give them a try. For 8 rolls. Recipe by 000hitomi000

It doesn't create too many dirty dishes either, which is a bonus.You don't have to be methodical with sifting and straining, just keep checking to see if it looks right when mixing (･ ･)b.

Rich Gateau au Chocolat Rich Gateau au Chocolat
I really like rich gateau au chocolat, so I modified the recipe my way.The texture will not turn out right if you over-bake it, so I recommend stopping when a creamy batter comes out when checking with a skewer. If the temperature of the batter goes down, the chocolate will cause the batter to harden, so keep the eggs at room temperature. It is best eaten the next day onward. For 15 cm [5.9 in] round mold.
