Pain au Chocolat

{before going into the oven after rising over night}

{Ready to eat! Sorry for not having a cute photo. These would have looked better on a plate}

I love chocolate croissants or shall I say Pain au Chocolat pastries. I had my first buttery, flaky, chocolaty goodness treat while honeymooning in St. Barts in 2007 and I wasn't reunited with these yummy pastries until this fall when my husband and I went to Paris.

Since, flying to Paris whenever I am in the mood for one of these yummy pastries from a cute Boulangerie is out of the question I will settle for the Trader Joes version. So happy I discovered these on a recent grocery trip as they are really tasty and one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast!

    Aren't those AMAZING!?! I always keep a box in my freezer. Guests are always wowed that they came from T.J.'s and not a local pastry shop.
