Puff Pastry is the go-to ingredient for bakers in search of a flaky, buttery texture. Whether sweet or savory, this pastry brings a unique versatility to the table. It is crafted via a method known as lamination, and it achieves its signature puffiness with a nice crunch on the outside and a soft fluffiness within, once baked. Loved not only in professional bakeries, but also in homes, it's this secret addition that tends to elevate the flavor of our favorite fillings.
Thaw and roll out puff pastry, then cut it into triangles. Add dark chocolate and roll into croissant shapes. Brush with egg wash and bake at 400 F for 15-20 minutes. Serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar.
Cornish pasties are made by filling a shortcrust pastry with beef, potatoes, onions, and turnips, then folding and crimping the edges. After brushing with egg, they are baked until golden and fully cooked inside. The pasties can be enjoyed warm or cold and are perfect for a hearty meal.
