Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unroll the croissant dough and cut it into triangles as per package instructions.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until thickened, around 2 minutes. Fold in powdered sugar until smooth.
Place a tablespoon of the pastry cream at the wide end of each triangle, then roll tightly from base to tip, ensuring seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
For the glaze: Heat heavy cream in a saucepan until boiling, then stir in cocoa powder until smooth.
Once cooled slightly, dip the tops of your croissants in the chocolate glaze and let set before serving.
