Ingredients

  • 2 x 320g ready roll puff pastry sheets
  • 175g chocolate spread
  • Zest of 2 oranges
  • 100g chopped hazelnuts
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 100g orange chocolate

Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat your oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C and line two large baking trays with baking paper. Unroll a puff pastry sheet and spread all over with chocolate spread.
  2. Step 2

    Sprinkle half the orange zest and half of the hazelnuts. Take your second sheet of pastry and place directly on top of your sheet spread with chocolate spread.
  3. Step 3

    Cut into 12 strips vertically. Take each strip and twist at both ends to create a spiral shape. Pinch the two ends together to form the dipped, top centre of the heart and pinch centrally at the bottom centre to create the 'V' shape of the heart. Lay on your baking tray and repeat with all strips.
  4. Step 4

    Brush all of your pastry hearts with egg before popping in the oven for 20-25 mins until golden (ensuring to swap the trays halfway through for an even cook). Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  5. Step 5

    Whilst your pastries cool, melt your chocolate in a glass bowl in the microwave in 20 second bursts ensuring not to burn.
  6. Step 6

    Drizzle each all over with chocolate before sprinkling with the rest of the zest and hazelnuts. Spoon any leftover melted chocolate into a ramekin for dunking.
