Step
1
Of 3
Unroll the round puff pastry. Using a knife, make a cross cut to divide the puff pastry into 4 identical parts. Divide each quarter into 3 smaller wedges.
Make a small incision on the edge of each slice, centrally. The cut will help us later to turn the tips of the croissants more easily to give the classic croissant shape.
Step
2
Of 3
Place half a teaspoon of chocolate spread (or Nutella), in the center of each wedge.
Spread the incision out slightly, and then begin rolling each slice from the widest side (not the tip).
Continue to roll gently, without pressing the puff pastry (it doesn't matter if you feel like you rolled it too wide)
Finish rolling and position the croissant so that the tip goes slightly underneath.
Step

Of 3
Place the baking paper with the sweet puff pastry croissants on the oven tray.
At this point try to slightly curve the ends of the croissants with puff pastry (do this in the direction of the tip of the dough).
Brush the puff pastry croissants with milk or water in which you have dissolved a little sugar and drop a little more sugar on the surface
This is not necesasry, but puff pastry is not sweet and therefore we suggest doing so.
Bake at 180° for about 25/30 minutes.
