Thoughts
Delicious way to use up extra puff pastry dough and fast to whip together. Make sure to keep puff pastry dough as cold as possible when working with it. I rolled out each sheet separately and kept the other in the fridge. Baking for 25min still left the middle a little squishy. To reheat, microwave for 10 seconds to melt chocolate, then broil for 3-5min until golden. Other fillings would probably also work well: Nutella, jams, etc.
