- Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.

Notes
Do not overfill with Nutella or strawberries to prevent leakage. For a vegan option, use dairy-free puff pastry, plant-based chocolate spread, and a non-dairy milk wash. To add extra flavor, sprinkle cinnamon or crushed nuts over the top before baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
