Bakery and Cooking Classes: Chocolate Banana Bundles /Chocolate Apple Bundles

Chocolate banana bundle is quick,irresistible dessert can be made in no time if the puff pasty is available in the refrigerator.Mostly I make the puff pastry in large quantities and store it in the freezer.

The weather is getting cold and dull, as a result not much of sunlight,wanted to bake a quick recipe so that I can click it in the day light.As I have puff pastry in the freezer, got the idea of using it and make this dessert which I had it couple of weeks back in a party.

For this recipe,all you need is to stuff some sugar coated banana or apple in the pastry sheet,fold it and bake.Once it cools down drizzle it with some melted chocolate.
