Toblerone pastries

Toblerone pastries.

These are a favourite with my teenage sons, and they're often gone before they've had a chance to cool. They are quick and easy to make and spinning them with some milk chocolate will make them look extra special.

Ingredients

One 150g Toblerone, or if you want to go large - a 360g one.
500g block of Jus-Rol puff pastry
1 egg, beaten
Caster sugar, for sprinkling
flour for rolling out
1 small bar of milk chocolate, melted (optional)

Makes approximately 11

  1. Preheat oven to 200C, 400F, gas mark 6 and grease and line two baking trays.
  2. Cut up the Toblerone, so each peak is separate. (Since they have cut the number of peaks on the Toblerone, you will need to cut off the section of chocolate between each peak). I really have no idea what you could possibly do with the leftover sections! 😊  
  3. Dust a work surface with flour and using a rolling pin, roll out the block of puff pastry to approximately 12". Depending on the size of Toblerone you're using, cut the pastry into squares, (3" for the smaller, 150g and 4" for the larger, 360g.)
  4. Place a peak of Toblerone on its side on to one side of a square, diagonally, so the point is pointing towards one corner of the square. Allow for a half-inch border. Using a pastry brush, brush the beaten egg around the side of the square containing the Toblerone.
  5. Bring the empty side across and press down firmly with your fingers, so that your Toblerone peak is encased in a triangle of puff pastry. Place onto one of the prepared baking trays. Then repeat, until you have used up all your Toblerone peaks.
  6. Brush your prepared puff pastry triangles with the beaten egg and sprinkle with the caster sugar. Then bake for approximately 15 minutes, until they are golden brown in colour.
  7. Allow to cool, then using either a greaseproof paper or plastic piping bag or the back of a teaspoon, spin or drizzle the milk chocolate across the tops of the shiny, crispy, golden Toblerone pastries. Enjoy! 
If you have any pastry leftover, why don't you try encasing other chocolate bars, like a Mars bar!

  Puddle Pudding Chocolatey, gooey and messy. But it's quick to make. Dollop it into a bowl. Dress it up with a drizzle of double cream, a sprinkle of sieved icing sugar and a strawberry, and your friends and family will think you've taken ages to prepare them a fancy dessert. Serves 4 to 6 Ingredients 2 Medium eggs 75g (3oz) Dark Chocolate, 50% cocoa solids 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules 1 tablespoon cocoa powder 3 tablespoons boiling water 100g (4oz) butter, at room temperature 100g (4oz) soft light brown sugar 100g (4oz) self-raising flour Sauce 25g (1oz) cocoa powder 1 tablespoon boiling water 300ml (10 fl oz) milk 100g (4oz) soft light brown sugar This is an unusual pudding as the cake mixture goes on the bottom and the cocoa flavoured milk sits on top. However, once it is baked the cocoa flavoured milk ends up at the bottom of the sponge as a  thick chocolate custard.  Look out a 1.4 litre (2pt) oval ovenproof baking dish and grease well. Set the oven to 150C, ...
