Petit Pain Au Chocolat

  • 1 pkg. 17.25 oz. Frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 1 cup 6 oz. Nestle Toll House Milk Chocolate Morsels, divided
  • 1 Lg. Egg
  • 1 bar 2 oz. Semi Sweet Chocolate Baking bars, broken in pieces
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons hot water

Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease 2 baking sheets. Unfold one pastry sheet on lightly floured surface. Roll out to make a 10" square. Cut into four squares. Place 2 tablespoons morsels in center of each square. Brush edges lightly with beaten egg and fold squares to form rectangles. Press edges to seal. Place on prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Repeat with remaining pastry sheets. Brush top of each pastry with beaten egg.

Bake for 15 - 17 minutes or until puffed and golden. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire tracks to cool completely.

Melt baking bar and butter in small, microwave safe bowl on high power for 30 seconds; stir. Microwave at additional 10 - 20 second intervals, stirring until smooth. Stir in sugar. Add water, stirring until icing is smooth, adding additional water if necessary. Drizzle icing over pastries.
