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.

My mother in laws sister was in town last night and I made it for her, her husband, my mother in law, my husband, myself, and... my 4 children and we loved it so much. I just could not believe how simple it was. I had to buy extra chocolate because every one was unwrapping them and eating as they went along.Read more
