Chocolate Satin Napoleons
Yield: 12 servings or 24 sample servings
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels, melted
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 (5.9 ounce) package chocolate instant pudding and pie filling
- 1 (8 ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds, finely chopped
- 6 to 8 strawberries, hulled and sliced
- Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Generously sprinkle Stoneware Bar Pan with flour.
- Unroll crescent dough along length of pan (do not separate triangles); pinch seams to seal. Lightly sprinkle dough with flour. Using Baker’s Roller(TM),
roll dough evenly to cover bottom of pan. Prick dough using pastry tool.
- Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Remove from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack; cool 10 minutes.
- Carefully remove pastry from pan to cooling rack; cool completely.
- Transfer pastry to smooth side of Large Grooved Cutting Board. Place chocolate morsels in Small Micro-Cooker(R); microwave on HIGH 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until chocolate is melted and smooth, stirring after each 20 second interval. Drizzle chocolate evenly over pastry; let stand until set. Using Pizza Cutter, cut pastry crosswise into six rows and lengthwise into four rows to make twenty-four 2
1/2 inch squares.
- In Classic Batter Bowl, combine milk and pudding mix; whisk until smooth using Stainless Steel Whisk. Immediately fold in whipped topping. Attach open star tip to Easy Accent(R) Decorator; completely fill with chocolate mixture. Pipe a 1 1/2-inch rosette onto center of each pastry square.
- Finely chop almonds using Food Chopper; sprinkle over rosettes. Remove stems from strawberries using Cook’s Corer(TM); slice strawberries with Egg Slicer Plus(R). Insert one strawberry slice into each rosette. Lightly sprinkle pastry squares with powdered sugar using Flour/Sugar Shaker. Place one pastry square on top of another using Mini-Serving Spatula, pressing down lightly. Repeat
with remaining pastry squares.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
The pastry squares can be served as 24 single dessert canapés, if desired.
To toast almonds, heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spread almonds in a single layer over bottom of Small Bar Pan. Bake 10-12 minutes or until light golden brown; cool completely.
For an attractive presentation, serve this dessert on the Simple Additions(TM) Large Square Platter.
