Ingredients
Bundles:
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon heavy cream
- 8 chocolate kisses (recommended: Hershey's)
- 8 miniature chocolate candy bars
Ganache:
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 4 ounces milk chocolate, broken into small pieces
- Sweetened whipped cream, optional
- Fresh strawberries, sliced, for garnish
- Mint sprigs, for garnish
Directions
Bundles: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Unfold puff pastry and cut the sheet into 2 (4 by 4-inch squares). Beat eggs and cream together to create an egg wash. Brush pastry squares with egg wash. Place 2 chocolate kisses and 1 mini candy bar in the center of each pastry square. Repeat with remaining kisses and mini-bars. Pull corners of the square up around the chocolate, brushing edges with more egg wash, if necessary, to create a secure bundle. Brush exteriors of chocolate bundles with more egg wash. Repeat with remaining bundles.
Place bundles on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
Ganache:
In a sauce pan bring the heavy cream to a boil. Place the chocolate pieces in a bowl and pour hot cream over top. Whisk until smooth.
Puddle ganache onto a plate and place 1 bundle on top. Top with whipped cream and additional ganache, if desired.
Serve bundles garnished with strawberry slices and mint sprigs.

OMG this recipe was amazing. I used a large chocolate caramel candy bar and put chopped pecans in over the squares in the bundles. I made the ganache but drizzled hershey chocolate syrup over the top of the bundles. It was outstanding.

OMG...so so so good. And easy, to boot. I used dark chocolate for the ganache, and a mix of dark chocolate Hershey's kisses and Dove milk chocolates with caramel filling for the inside of the bundles - A+++++!!! (I didn't bother with the mint sprigs, but the strawberries and whipped cream were a nice way to cut through the richness of the chocolate.

This was an awesome recipe! I am NOT a baker and this turned out great. I made it for Valentine's Day and my boyfriend was very impressed!
