Vegan Homemade Chocolate Turnovers

I have been wanting some good sweet pastries but wasn't sure which one I can purchase at stores. I found out that Pepperidge Farm's frozen Puff Pastry sheet is a vegan! 

The useful info is from this book. 



So I figure use the pastry sheet and make it easy and probably cheaper than any store-bought vegan goods.  

It was a huge hit, and I wanted more...that's how good! or bad... in a way. ;) 




You can easily look up recipes for "chocolate turnover"...but this is what I use. 


I know being a vegan isn't mean that being healthy and it is a good or bad example.

Well, at least it doesn't contain no dairy products.

Also this item helped make this easy! Oh how I love Trader Joe's!!



When it says "May contain traces of milk" I just wish it doesn't. So it is a vegan for me!

All I did was defrost the sheet over night in the fridge. Preheat the oven 425F. Cut a sheet into 9 pieces of 3 inch square. Place a little less 1 tablespoon of  chocolate chips on the middle of this cutted small square sheet. Fold it into half, like a triangle, seal them brushing with almond milk, press it with folk from top. Brush some almond milk on these triangles and then bake them for 12-15 minutes until they are golden brown.

I had it with my usual, iced cafe almond latte.




This chocolate chips melted perfectly! It can be really hot, so please careful if you are urge to try them right after taking it out from your oven!

I do have some healthy snacks available on the table as well though. 

My younger son could not stop eating those clementines. So cute and yummy, easy to eat!  

Good for afternoon snack or let them take as part of school lunch. 

I'll talk about boys vegan school lunch next time. :) 

Have a good one, everyone!
