"Trader Joe's chocolate croissants might just be good enough to rival fresh ones from the bakery. Chocolatey, buttery, flaky on the outside, and utterly tender within, they check all the right boxes. And the best part? Turning the croissants into sweet rolls is a breeze. You just need to thaw them, cut them into bite-sized pieces, and let them proof."
"An easy way to give your Trader Joe's croissant that glossy, bakery-fresh sheen and golden hue is by brushing them with an egg wash. Moreover, there are quite a few toppings to add to your croissants that you can try out with this sweet roll twist. A sprinkle of powdered sugar is obviously a no-brainer, as well as cinnamon, nutmeg, and other warm spices."
Frozen chocolate croissants from Trader Joe's offer chocolatey, buttery, flaky exteriors and tender interiors that can rival bakery-fresh pastries. Thawing, cutting into bite-sized pieces, and proofing the dough for at least nine hours in a butter-greased baking dish yields full, fluffy, tender sweet rolls. Baking should follow the package instructions after the overnight rise. Brushing with an egg wash produces a glossy, golden finish. Topping options include powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, warm spices, chopped nuts, dried fruits, and flavor additions like Nutella, peanut butter, melted chocolate, or caramel sauce.
