Chocolate Nutella Turnovers

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Stir together 1 cup chocolate chips and the Nutella.

3. 3

   On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 12 x 12 inch square. Use a pizza cutter to cut into 9 squares.

4. 4

   With a fork, whisk together the egg and water. Using your finger, apply the egg wash to 2 adjacent sides of each square.

5. 5

   Add 1 heaping tablespoon of the chocolate/Nutella mixture to the middle of each square. Fold over to make triangles and press to seal edges.

6. 6

   (There will be some of this mixture leftover. What happens in the kitchen, stay in the kitchen.)

7. 7

   Brush the top of each turnover with egg wash. Sprinkle with the slivered almonds. Bake for 15 minutes.

8. 8

   Meanwhile, melt the remaining chocolate chips and the shortening in the microwave on 50% power in 30-second intervals. Stir after each interval until melted. Set aside.

9. 9

   Remove the turnover from the oven and place on a cooling rack for 10 minutes.

10. 10

    Spoon the melted chocolate into a quart-sized freezer baggie (a storage baggie might burst) and snip a hole in one corner. Squeeze over the turnovers in a decorative pattern.
