Chocolate hot pockets

A classical snack that mums used to give their children… in my homemade version 😉 let’s bake chocolate hot pockets!

 

MAKES 6-8 HOT POCKETS
READY IN 7h (or more, depending on resting time)

 

 

INGREDIENTS:

12 oz all –purpose flour

½ oz yeast dissolved into ½ glass lukewarm milk

3 oz sugar

1 egg

2 oz butter (room temperature)

1 pinch salt

Lemon zest to taste

 

All-purpose flour to taste (for the pastry board)

1 egg yolk, beaten

 

 

STEP1: MAKE THE DOUGH

Ina  bowl mix together the first seven ingredients for about 10 minutes (until smooth).

 

STEP 2: LET IT RISE

You have two options:

  • let the dough rise at room temperature for about 4 hours covered with cling film.
  • place the bowl covered with cling film into the fridge and let it rest all night long. The day after remember to remove the bowl from the fridge 1 hour before step 3.

I suggest you the second option 😉

 

STEP 3: SHAPE THE POCKETS

Put some flour on the pastry board, then place the dough on it and roll it out using a rolling pin.

Cut 6-8 rectangles and place a tablespoon Nutella in the centre of each one. Close the pocket by rolling them up. Make sure to close the borders well with fingers.

Cover a baking sheet with baking paper. Place the pockets on it (not too close) and sprinkle them with the beaten egg yolk.

 

STEP 4: THE LAST REST

Let the pockets rest into the oven (turned off!) for a couple of hours.

 

STEP 4: COOK THE POCKETS

Cook the pockets in preheated oven at 180° for 20 minutes.
