Calories: 174kcal
Ingredients
- ½ easy puff pastry dough (or 1 11x11 store bought puff pastry sheet)
- 2 tablespoons gluten free flour for dusting
- ¼ cup light brown sugar , packed
- ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons chocolate chips (reserve 2 tablespoons for melting)
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Take half of the puff pastry dough out of the fridge. Lightly dust a clean surface with gluten free flour. Roll the dough out into an 11 inch circle.If using frozen store-bought pastry dough, thaw according to the instructions on the box and then trim the edges of the 11x11 inch square to make a circle.
- Using a pizza cutter or a knife, cut your circle like a pizza into 8 triangular slices and gently separate the slices from one another.
- Gently sprinkle the ¼ cup brown sugar on each of the 8 slices. It’s ok if you go to the edges of the slice with the sugar.
- Next, sprinkle the ½ cup chocolate chips onto the center of triangular slice.You don’t want the chips go to the edges because they will prevent you from rolling the pastry.
- Roll the triangles up starting at the wide end. Roll away from you and gently press the triangle point down into the roll to seal shut.
- Place your rolls on a baking sheet. Brush a little of the 1 tablespoon milk on top of each chocolate puff pastry roll.Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until they are golden brown.
- Place 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips in a small microwave safe bowl and heat in 15 second increments, stirring after each time, until melted. Drizzle on top of your Chocolate Pastry Rolls and enjoy right away!

Notes
For Vegan: Follow the steps to make our easy puff pastry dough vegan, use a vegan brand of sugar, buy vegan chocolate chips an instead of milk, brush the raw dough with dairy-free milk or 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup mixed with 1 tablespoon water.
Storing: Once cool, store any extra twists in an airtight container or a zip top bag at room temperature for up to 2 days.
If desired, reheat in the microwave for a few seconds prior to eating. Be careful not to burn your mouth.
I do not recommend freezing the puff pastry twists.
