Ingredients to make puff pastry with chocolate:

1. To elaborate the puff pastry palmeritas with chocolate we need very few ingredients: a sheet of made puff pastry (you can also encourage you to make it at home with this recipe of puff pastry dough, although it will no longer be such a fast and easy recipe … ), sugar and chocolate. For the chocolate bath you will find other options, adding or butter or milk … My version is simplified and is very good. Of course, choose a good chocolate, I love the 70 percent of the Lindt Excellence house.

2. We turn on the oven to 200ºC to warm up, and we start with our fantastic chocolate palm trees! First we extend the puff pastry on the baking paper and spread a good amount of sugar over the entire surface. With the back of a knife we mark the line of half of the sheet, and fold each half on itself, to the central line. In the photo you can see the first folding … Is it understood?

3. We spread sugar on the puff pastry mass, and fold each half on itself, always to the central line. Luckily you have the photos of the step by step to see how these chocolate palm trees are made …

4. Here we have the two halves bent on themselves …, and we extend sugar on the entire surface. We almost have the sweet puff pastry ready to bake.

5. We fold one half on the other (not to the central line, now one over another directly), and we have a kind of puff pastry sausage. Now we just have to cut pieces of medium or a centimeter thick, as shown in the photo.

6. We put the pieces on an oven tray, keeping the baking paper. In the oven they will fold the size, so try to separate the palm trees enough.

7. Bake the cookies of puff pastry between 10 and 15 minutes at 200 degrees of temperature … And this is the succulent result! And beware that some have stuck, I already told you that the cookies on the tray had to be spaced.

8. We let sugar palmerit cool for about 10 minutes. Next, we prepare the chocolate bath. Easier impossible: we place the chocolate in a bowl and two minutes of microwave …, it is already melted and ready! We bathe half palmerite in the chocolate and put it on a rack to dry. With a maximum hour it will be enough.

9. and we can already summon and serve the puff pastry with chocolate. Accompany them from this Nescafé shake to snack on a Saturday afternoon … delicious!
