Easy Chocolate Twists (Copycat Costa)

Copycat Costa Coffee - Easy Chocolate Twists.

These are just like the Costa coffee version, except much cheaper. I love the smell of fresh pastry baking, and these make a fabulous morning or mid-afternoon treat. 3 ingredients and some bake time and you've got 6 dreamy twists.

Ingredients

  • 325 g Puff Pastry (1 Block)
  • 70 g Instant Custard Powder
  • 75 g Milk Chocolate Chips
  • 1 Medium Free Range Egg Optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Line 2 large baking trays. 
  • Make a custard using 70g custard powder with 150ml boiling water - it'll be thick. Let chill in the fridge 10 mins.
  • Remove the pastry. If a sheet, roll out onto a floured surface. If it's a block, roll to about 2 cm thick - about 30x15cm.
  • With the short width facing towards you, spread the custard over the pastry. The custard should be fairly thick. Sprinkle over the chocolate chips.
  • Fold the pastry in half (from bottom to top - see Instagram for video) and cut into about 7 strips. 
  • Take each strip and, holding each end with one hand each, twist around once. Place on a baking tray - a few cm apart. If using, spread the egg wash over the top.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, checking to ensure they don't burn - they should be a deep golden brown.
  • Remove, let cool on a wire rack and I highly recommend eating whilst still warm!
