Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
- 4 pieces chocolate sticks or bars

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the puff pastry into a large rectangle and cut it into 4 smaller rectangles.
- Place a piece of chocolate at the bottom of each smaller rectangle and roll up the dough around the chocolate stick, tucking the ends underneath.
- Place the Pain au Chocolat seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg for a shiny finish.
