🍽️ 6 pastries

Ingredients

• 120g mascarpone

• 120g heavy cream

• 70g powdered sugar

• 1 egg yolk

• 1 puff pastry (can be GF)

• 40g dark chocolate, chopped

• 40g heavy cream

• 1 tbsp instant coffee

• Egg wash

• Cocoa powder

Method

• Make the mascarpone cream by adding the mascarpone, egg yolk, heavy cream and powdered sugar with an electric handmixer until obtaining medium hard peaks. Transfer to a pipping bag and reserve in the fridge until ready to use

• Now make the coffee chocolate sauce by mixing the dark chocolate, cream and instant coffee in a pot and brining to medium heat while constantly stirring until it melts

• Roll out the puff pastry and cut into squares (I did 6). Using a knife cut a half inch edge around the square (two L shapes) leaving two opposite corners uncut. Fold the two cut corners up and over to the other side.

• Prick the middle part with a fork. Brush the pastries with egg wash.

• Bake in a preheated oven at 180C for about 15 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool down. Press the middle with a spoon to make space to pipe the chocolate and mascarpone

• Spread a layer of the coffee chocolate sauce at the bottom of the pastry. Then pipe the mascarpone cream o top. Finally dust with some cocoa on top and enjoy
