I figured a return to food blogging wasn’t really legitimate until I post about, well, food. So here we have a quick, easy and totally scrummy recipe for a little something sweet to have with your mid-morning coffee.
Lemon Curd and Chocolate Twists
Makes 8
375g puff pastry, ready rolled
Lemon Curd
Chocolate spread
Preheat the oven to 200c/180c fan
Lay the pastry with the longer sides facing you cut it down the middle using a sharp knife so that you have two equal pieces of pastry. Spread the chocolate spread over the bottom half of one piece of pastry then bring the top half down over the bottom so that it’s folded in half lengthways with the chocolate spread sandwiched in between. Repeat on the other piece of pastry with the lemon curd.
Using the knife, cut each piece of pastry into four strips. Very gently twist each strip, taking care not to squeeze the filling out, and then place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake them for 10-15 minutes, until golden.
So simple yet really so perfect. And difficult to eat only one (of each).
Thank heavens for ready-rolled puff pastry 🙂 I coudl imagine these in a savoury format too…
These look yummy…love anything with lemon curd & chocolate!
