Ingredients
0.5 of a 17.3 ounce-package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets(1 sheet), thawed
1 cup heavy cream
0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
6 ounces (1 cup) semi-sweet chocolate pieces, melted and cooled
1 ounce semi-sweet chocolate, melted

1 cup heavy cream

6 ounces (1 cup) semi-sweet chocolate pieces, melted and cooled
1 ounce semi-sweet chocolate, melted
0.25 cup confectioners' sugar
Instructions
Heat the oven to 400°F.
Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into 3 strips along the fold marks. Cut each strip into 6 rectangles. Place the pastries 2-inches apart on 2 baking sheets.
Bake the pastries for 15 minutes or until they're golden brown. Remove the pastries from the baking sheets and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
Put the cream and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Beat with an electric mixer set on high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold in the melted chocolate pieces. Split each pastry into 2 layers, making 36 pieces. Spread 18 bottom halves with the chocolate cream mixture. Top with the remaining top halves. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate up to 4 hours.
Drizzle the pastries with the chocolate and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
