Puff pastry and chocolate fans are treats that are easy to make with only four ingredients.
The puff pastry fans, also called Prussians, are made with a roll of puff pastry sprinkled with sugar; I personally added some cinnamon, which you can omit if you don’t like it.
The peculiarity of these treats is their shape, reminiscent of a fan. Once baked in the oven, you can garnish half of each fan with melted dark chocolate.
With a few simple ingredients, you can serve your guests crunchy and delightful treats.

- 1 roll puff pastry
- 2.5 oz dark chocolate

- as needed ground cinnamon
Steps
To make the puff pastry and chocolate fans, roll out the puff pastry with the long side facing you.
Sprinkle the surface of the puff pastry with sugar and cinnamon.
Roll the two long edges inward until two rolls meet. Chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
Then, with a knife, cut slices about 1/2 to 3/5 inch thick.
Place the small fans on a baking tray with parchment paper, and bake in a preheated oven at 355°F for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown. Once baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool.
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler and cover half of each fan with the melted chocolate.
Place the fans on the tray covered with parchment paper to let the chocolate set. Enjoy!
