Calories are an editor’s estimate per serving, not a lab measurement.

Method

  1. 1

    Drop the chocolate spread in teaspoon portions onto parchment paper and freeze until solid.

  2. 2

    Knead flour, water, oil, sugar, vinegar, and salt in a bowl to get a smooth, soft dough.

  3. 3

    Cover and rest the dough for 15 minutes, then divide into 12 equal balls.

  4. 4

    Roll out each ball as thinly and transparently as possible using a rolling pin.

  5. 5

    Place the frozen chocolate balls in the center, gather the edges at the top, and pinch off any excess dough.

  6. 6

    Bake in a preheated oven at 220 degrees Celsius for only 5-7 minutes until the bottom browns, and serve hot.

Note. Your oven must be very hot and the baking time should not exceed 7 minutes to prevent the dough from drying out.

Questions

What oven temperature should I use?

It should be baked in a preheated oven at 220°C (425°F) for a very short time.

How to keep the chocolate molten?

Do not overbake it, and you can warm it up in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.
