Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. Place the pastry squares on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
  6. Remove the pastry squares from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth and melted.
  8. Dip one side of each cooled pastry square into the melted chocolate, making sure it covers the entire surface.
  9. Immediately sprinkle the chopped nuts over the chocolate-coated side of the pastry squares.
  10. Place the decorated crisps back on the wire rack to allow the chocolate to set.
  11. Once the chocolate has hardened, lightly dust the tops of the crisps with powdered sugar.
  12. Serve and enjoy these irresistible Noel Crisps as a festive holiday treat!
