Photo: Chocolate Bundles with Chocolate Sauce Recipe
Ingredients
For the bundles:
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon whipping cream
- 8 chocolate drops (recommended: Hershey's kisses)
- 8 miniature chocolate candy bars
For the chocolate sauce:
- 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
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
For the bundles:
Allow the puff pastry to thaw, covered, for 30 minutes at room temperature. When it is pliable, unfold puff pastry and cut the sheet into 4 squares
Beat the eggs and cream together to create an egg wash. Brush the entire surface of each pastry square with egg wash. In the center of each pastry square, place 2 chocolate drops and 2 miniature candy bars. Pull the corners of each square up around the chocolate, and twist the top of the dough clockwise to complete the "bundle." Brush the exteriors of the chocolate bundles with more egg wash.
Place the bundles on the cookie sheet. Bake for about 35 minutes, until golden brown.
For the chocolate sauce:
In a small saucepan bring the heavy cream to a boil. Place the chocolate pieces in a bowl and pour hot cream over the top. Whisk until the sauce is smooth.
Puddle the chocolate sauce on each plate and place a bundle on top. Top with whipped cream and additional chocolate sauce, if desired. Serve the bundles garnished with strawberry slices and mint sprigs.

This was amazing! You have to eat it nice and warm including the ganache! The kisses didn't really melt so I think I might use a different chocolate. This recipe will taste like the best thing you ever ate if you use good quality chocolate. I had plenty of egg wash left over.

This recipe was great! I have made these a couple of times and they are a huge hit with everyone!! The only thing I changed was the chocolate kisses, I used mini chocolate bars insted and they melted perfectly.

Not only did I serve this with homemade chocolate sauce but ice cream as well. So delicious an rice. I used snickers for the chocolate candy which was wonderful and gave the dish a nice texture with the crunch from the nuts mixed with the flakiness of the puff pastry. The first time I made these I used too much egg wash and the dough had a hard time sticking together but puff pastry shells with melted chocolate candy is still as tasty as the bundles.
