Ingredients
- 2 sheets Frozen Puff Pastry, thawed
- 1 cup Pistachio cream just enough to cover the puff pastry sheet!
- 1/4 cup Milk Chocolate roughly chopped
- 1 egg for the egg wash
Optional (for topping)
- 2 tbsp chopped pistachios
- 2 tbsp Milk Chocolate
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (or 375°F for convection oven). Line a baking tray with parchment. Set aside.
- Place one sheet of puff pastry on a baking tray.
- Spread the pistachio cream evenly across the surface of the puff pastry.
- Sprinkle chopped chocolate over the pistachio cream.
- Cover with the second sheet of puff pastry, gently pressing so the layers connect.
- Cut the layered pastry into 12 even strips.
- Twirl each strip, then swirl it into a little nest shape, placing each one back on the tray (Note: Tuck end part of puff pastry underneath the nest to prevent unfolding during baking).
- Brush the tops with the beaten egg wash, and top with crush pistachios (optional).
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the pastries are puffed and golden, with crisp, flaky edges.
- Cool slightly, then top with melted chocolate and powdered sugar (optional).
- Enjoy warm!
Notes
Sofia’s Tips:
- When cutting the pastry start by cutting into thirds. Halve each section, then halve again. You’ll end up with 12 even strips, perfect for twisting.
- Tuck end part underneath the nest to prevent unfolding.
