Chocolate Chip Cookie Turnovers

These decadent Chocolate Chip Cookie Turnovers are a delightful twist on a classic treat. Flaky puff pastry encases a gooey, chocolate chip cookie filling, creating a truly irresistible dessert. They’re perfect for any occasion, from a casual afternoon snack to a fancy dessert spread.

Ingredients:

For the Cookie Dough Filling:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon milk (or more if needed)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour (heat-treated for safety)
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
• Pinch of salt

For the Turnovers:

• 1 package puff pastry (thawed)
• 1 egg (for egg wash)
• 1 tablespoon water
• Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Instructions:

1. Make the Cookie Dough Filling:

   • In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
   • Beat in the vanilla extract and milk.  
   • Gradually stir in the flour and salt until a dough forms.
   • Fold in the mini chocolate chips.

2. Prepare the Puff Pastry:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
   • Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into 4-inch squares.

3. Assemble the Turnovers:

   • Place a spoonful of the cookie dough filling in the center of each puff pastry square.
   • Fold the square diagonally to form a triangle, sealing the edges with a fork.

4. Egg Wash:

   • Whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of the turnovers with the egg wash.

5. Bake:

   • Place the turnovers on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.

6. Serve:

   • Let the turnovers cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
