Pain au Chocolat

Pain au chocolat, or chocolate croissant, is a popular French pastry that combines the rich, buttery flavor of a croissant with the deliciousness of chocolate. These crescent-shaped rolls are made with a chocolate filling that is sandwiched between two layers of croissant dough. The pastry is then rolled out thin and folded multiple times to create the signature flaky layers. Pain au chocolat can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature and can be stored for a few days in an airtight container.
