Ingredients
 
 

  • 4 sheets frozen shortcrust pastry partially thawed
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 24 mars chocolates unwrapped
  • cinnamon sugar for dusting
  • icing sugar for dusting
  • whipped cream to serve

Instructions
 

  • Cut each sheet of pastry into 6 rectangles, and brush lightly with egg.
  • Place 1 chocolate in the centre of each piece of the pastry, and fold over the pastry to enclose the chocolate.
  • Trim pastry, pressing the edges to seal. Place on a baking paper-lined tray.
  • Brush tops with a little egg, and sprinkle liberally with cinnamon sugar.
  • Place a sheet of baking paper in the air fryer basket, making sure the paper is 1 cm (0,39 inches) smaller than the basket to allow air to circulate.
  • Place 6 pockets in the basket, being careful not to overlap.
  • Cook at 190°C (374°F) for 9 minutes or until golden and the pastry is cooked through.
  • Transfer to a plate, ad repeat with remaining pockets.
