Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry (store-bought, thawed if frozen)
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheet until it's about 12x12 inches.

Step 3

Cut the pastry sheet into 4 equal squares using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter.

Step 4

Place approximately 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips in the center of each square.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.

Step 6

Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash to help seal the turnovers.

Step 7

Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly with a fork to seal the pastry.

Step 8

Place the turnovers on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the turnovers with the egg wash to give them a golden sheen when baked.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the turnovers cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.

Step 12

Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
