Description

Delightful and easy-to-make Cookie Puff Pastries featuring flaky puff pastry filled with chocolate chips and a cinnamon sugar blend, perfect for a sweet breakfast treat or dessert.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
  2. Thaw Puff Pastry: If using frozen puff pastry, thaw it according to package instructions for best results and easy handling.
  3. Prepare Pastry Squares: Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut into squares or rectangles based on your preference for the final shape.
  4. Add Filling: Brush the top of each pastry with melted butter. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon if desired. Optionally, add a few chocolate chips in the center of each square to create chocolate-filled pastries.
  5. Fold and Seal: Fold each pastry square into a triangle or rectangle, pressing the edges gently to seal the filling inside and avoid spillage during baking.
  6. Apply Egg Wash: Whisk the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the tops of the pastries to achieve a beautiful golden-brown finish once baked.
  7. Bake Pastries: Arrange the filled pastries on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and crisp.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the pastries from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.

Notes

  • Allow puff pastry to thaw completely before working to avoid tearing.
  • Chocolate chips are optional but add a rich chocolate flavor.
  • Use parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  • Egg wash is key for a shiny, golden crust but can be skipped for a vegan version by using a plant-based alternative.
  • Best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container and reheated.
