4-Ingredient Puff Pastry Sweet Chocolate Ravioli Recipe

These Puff Pastry Sweet Chocolate Ravioli are perfect for when you need a decadent treat quickly and without much fuss. They include only four ingredients and are easy to assemble as long as you have thawed puff pastry. These chocolate ravioli are assembled like ravioli, but instead of pasta dough, they use pre-made puff pastry. The hazelnut cream filling softens in the oven and creates the most luxurious filling. These puff pastry sweet chocolate ravioli make lovely desserts with a dusting of powdered sugar.

To make the chocolate ravioli, you simply cut a sheet of puff pastry into squares, dollop hazelnut cream on top, and fold them as you would ravioli. Then, they get brushed with an egg wash before being baked until golden brown in the oven.

What is Puff Pastry Sweet Chocolate Ravioli?

Puff pastry is a flaky pastry that originated in France, but today, it can be found in the freezer section in most grocery stores. It is a laminated pastry meaning that the dough has been folded with butter, which makes it extremely flaky. Then, when the puff pastry dough bakes, the steam from the butter helps the pastry puff up and form holes.

Puff pastry is excellent in both sweet and savory concoctions. This chocolate ravioli recipe is quite similar to puff pastry chocolate twists or puff pastry chocolate rolls which use the same ingredients, but are simply assembled differently.
