Recipe for horn with chocolate

Delicious and tasty recipe for chocolate croissants.

The recipe is easy, quick, and very child-friendly.

We have the recipe from the book: “Children’s Baking Book“, where the author Katrine Klinken writes the following about the recipe:

“They are also called chocolate croissants. Croissants are traditionally French breakfast bread shaped like horns.

Here, the delicious horns are filled with chocolate. Bakers often make them from puff pastry, which has many layers.

Here, they are made from a dough that is easier to make at home.”
