Easy Brioche au Chocolat (chocolate brioche)

Once in a while I deserve a treat! So I decided to make this easy version of "Brioche au chocolat", meaning chocolate brioche, which is a popular French pastry.

Ingredients:

  • 2 PK refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 8 TB semisweet chocolate chips (just fill the bottom of the tablespoon)
  • powdered sugar to sprinkle on top of each pastry
Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F


Remove the dough according to the package's directions. Smooth the perforations (dotted lines) of the dough with your fingers and cut it in 8 pieces.

Place 1 tablespoon of the chocolate chips in the center of each piece. Bring each of the 4 corners to the center to form an envelope.

Place pastries on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake them for about 10-15 minutes or until golden.


Remove and place pastries on a cooling rack. Sprinkle a bit of powdered sugar on top of each one.

Serve warm.

Makes 8 pastries.

Enjoy!
