If you’ve ever tasted Starbucks’ mouthwatering chocolate croissants, then you will appreciate this EASY three-ingredient version using puff pastry, chocolate chips, and powdered sugar. When I worked for a real estate consulting firm in southern California, my boss took me to Starbucks nearly every morning and I would always order the same thing: a venti chai tea latte with soy milk and no foam, along with a warm chocolate croissant. Knowing that I can make this with only three ingredients makes my heart skip a beat. I know they’re not really croissants, but the dough is very similar and they taste just as good as a croissant. If you love easy puff pastry breakfast recipes, then you’ll drool over my Strawberry Cream Cheese Breakfast Pastry Hearts recipe!
I was so fond of these that when I took a four-week vacation to Italy in 2010 (back in my single days – before marriage and parenthood!), I ate a chocolate croissant every morning along with a hot espresso. Needless to say, I love chocolate and I love the heavenly combination of chocolate and croissants!

How to Make the Best Puff Pastry Chocolate Croissants
STEP 1: Take the puff pastry out of the freezer about 30-40 minutes before you start to bake.
STEP 2: Preheat your oven to 400° F/200° C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
STEP 3: Use a knife to cut each thawed puff pastry into six pieces. Each piece will be about 3 inches by 5 inches (8 cm x 12.5 cm).
STEP 4: Place half the chocolate chips in the center of each thawed pastry.

STEP 5: From the short end, carefully wrap up each pastry, making sure to keep the chocolate chips inside while you roll. Repeat with the remainder of the pastry and chocolate chips.
