The Simplicity of Crescent Roll Dough 🥐✨
Using refrigerated crescent rolls is one of the best kitchen shortcuts for home bakers, making it the ideal base for a quick turnover.
Why We Love This 2-Ingredient Recipe
- Budget-Friendly: You only need a tube of dough and a bag of your favorite chocolate chips to get started.
- Gluten-Free Options: This recipe works beautifully with your favorite gluten-free chocolate chips (like Hershey’s) to accommodate different dietary needs.
- Fast Cleanup: By using a sheet of parchment paper on your baking tray, you ensure a non-stick experience and a 10-second cleanup once the treats are gone!
Creative Ways to Customize Your Turnovers 🍫🍓
While the classic combination of crescent dough and semi-sweet chocolate is hard to beat, you can easily put your own spin on this recipe.
Mix-In and Topping Ideas
- Berry Twist: Add a few fresh raspberries or a thin slice of strawberry from your garden harvest inside the dough alongside the chips for a fruity kick.
- Sweet Glaze: Once the turnovers have cooled slightly, drizzle them with a simple mix of powdered sugar and a drop of water for a bakery-style finish.
- Nutty Crunch: Add a pinch of crushed walnuts or pecans inside for a bit of texture that pairs perfectly with the melty chocolate.
🥐🍫 2-Ingredient Chocolate Chip Turnovers Recipe
⏱️ Prep Time: 5 Minutes | Cook Time: 7-9 Minutes | Yield: 8 Turnovers
🥐 Ingredients
- 1 tube Refrigerated Crescent Rolls
- 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips (Milk, Semi-sweet, or Dark)
🛠️ Supplies
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
- Fork (for Crimping)
📝 Instructions
- Preheat: Set your oven to 375°F and line your baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Form the Turnovers: Unroll the dough. If using triangles, press two triangles together at the seams to form a rectangle. You should have 4 rectangles total.
- Add Chocolate: Place about 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips on one half of each dough rectangle, leaving a small border around the edge.
- Fold & Seal: Fold the other half of the dough over the chips to create a square or rectangular turnover.
- Crimp: Use the tines of a fork to press and seal the edges firmly. This creates a beautiful border and keeps the chocolate inside.
- Bake: Place on the baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.
- Cool & Serve: Let them sit for a minute so the chocolate sets slightly, then enjoy your warm, flaky treat!
