Chocolate Raspberry Pastry Tartlets

Chocolate-hazelnut spread coats flaky puff pastry tartlets that are filled with fresh raspberries and finished with a cloud of whipped cream.

Directions

Spray 12 (2 1/2-inch) muffin-pan cups with vegetable cooking spray. Heat the oven to 375°F.

Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry into a 12 x 9-inch rectangle. Cut the rectangle into 12 (3-inch) squares. Press the pastry squares into the muffin-pan cups. Brush only the sides of the pastry squares with the egg. Prick the bottom of the pastry square with a fork.

Bake for 10 minutes or until the tartlet shells are golden brown. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove the tartlet shells from the pan and cool completely.

Beat the cream, sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.

Spoon about 1 tablespoon chocolate hazelnut spread into each tartlet shell.  Top each with 3 to 4 raspberries and 1 teaspoon whipped cream. Garnish with the mint leaves, if desired, and serve immediately.
