Chocolate Fix

One of the best weekend outings here in the UK includes heading out to one of the local farm shops for a little lunch and food shopping.  There are so many places to choose from, and they always have the comforting staples: tea and pastries.  Usually, my husband and I decide to bring a few of their pastries home with us to enjoy later.  On this trip to La Hogue Farm Shop and Cafe, we decided to take home a whole dozen chocolate croissants.   They're perfect for the occasional chocolate fix, especially on Sunday mornings.  If you want to make a dessert of it, you can pair them with a little chocolate fondue and fruit.

For the pre-made frozen croissants, just leave them out overnight, brush some egg wash on in the morning, and bake for 20 minutes.  If you don't live near a farm shop, try William Sonoma's frozen chocolate croissants.  They're amazing as well.  I'm telling you, these pastries are such great comfort food.  They'll make your home and your belly feel cozy and happy!
