List of Ingredients
- PASTRY:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 T cold water
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate mini morsels
- FILLING:
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- GLAZE:
- 1 tsp instant coffee
- 3 T warm water
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 T butter, softened
- DRIZZLE:
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate mini morsels
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- FOR PASTRY: Place 1 cup flour in large bowl; cut in 1/2 cup butter with pastry blender until crumbly. Stir in 2 T water with fork until moistened. Divide dough in half; shape into 2 balls. Pat each ball into 12" x 3" rectangle about 3" apart on ungreased baking sheet. Sprinkle 1/4 cup morsels evenly over rectangles; press in slightly.
- FOR FILLING: Place 1 cup water and 1/2 cup butter in medium, heavy-duty saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes or until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat; stir in 1 cup flour and vanilla extract. Reduce heat to low; cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture forms a ball (about 1 minute). Remove from heat. Beat in eggs by hand, until smooth and glossy. Spread mixture to completely cover each rectangle.
- Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until pastry is crisp and golden brown; cool completely on baking sheet on wire rack. (Topping rises during baking and shrinks during standing, forming a custard-like layer.)
- FOR GLAZE: Combine instant coffe and 3 T warm water in small bowl; stir until coffee is dissolved. Stir in sugar and 2 T butter until smooth and creamy. Spread evenly over each pastry.
- FOR DRIZZLE: Microwave 1/4 cup morsels and vegetable oil in small, heavy-duty plastic bag on HIGH power for 30 seconds; knead. Microwave at 10 to 20 second intervals, kneading until smooth. Cut tiny corner from bag; squeeze to drizzle evenly over each pastry. Pull knife through drizzle 3 times to create design. Cut into 1" slices.
