Easy Chocolate Puff Pastry Bites

Yield: Approximately 24
Time: 25 minutes total not including thaw time for puff pastry

• 1 Box of thawed store bought puff pastry from the frozen section of your local grocery store. (thawed to the point where you can work with them but not to the point that they make a gooey mess. Taking them out of the freezer and letting them thaw in the refrigerator overnight is optimal)
• Butter
• Milk chocolate chips about 3/4 cup.

1] Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

2] Grease a baking sheet with butter.

3]Cut the thawed puff pastry sheets into squares. 1 sheet of puff pastry should yield 12 squares. The brand i used (Pepperidge farm) yielded 24 per box.

4] Put 4 chocolate chips into the center of each puff pastry square.

5] Fold up the squares to envelope the chocolate chips.

6] Pierce the assembled squares every where with a fork. (This will reduce their "puff" and keep them bite sized.)

7] Arrange them on the baking sheet. Bake for 14 through 16 minutes. Or until the puff pastry is cooked to your liking.
