Chocolate pastry bread

Overview

In order to use up the remaining whipping cream at home, I made this chocolate puff pastry bread. The flavor is particularly mellow due to the addition of whipping cream. It is wrapped in chocolate puff pastry particles and baked to become crispy. It tastes even better with a cup of coffee. Applicable: Xuechu 6-inch non-stick live bottom hollow mold
