| METHOD |
| 1. Roll out the dough into a rectangle 27 x 35 cm. Cut into three strips lengthways, then cut across the middle horizontally so it ends up with six rectangles about 10 x 18 cm. |
| 2. Place 2 chocolate sticks just above the middle of each rectangle and bring the bottom edge up to the top edge. |
| 3. Fold the two edges back down to the middle. Turn the pastries over and place on a baking sheet lined with non-stick baking parchment. Chill for 15 minutes. |
| 4. Preheat the oven to 180°C. |
| 5. Brush the pastries with beaten egg and dust with icing sugar. Bake for 15-20 minutes until puffed up and golden. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before serving. |
