I found this super easy recipe on Martha Stewart.com. I changed the recipe slightly. Very very yummy.
Go make it.

Chocolate Almond Pastry:

Ingredients:
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce package), thawed
1 large egg, lightly beaten, for egg wash
1 1/2 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
Best-quality honey, for drizzling
half a bag of sliced almonds, or however much you prefer

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Arrange puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Fold edges to make a 10 inch square.
2. Prick the middle of the dough all over with a fork. Brush edges with an egg wash.
3. Cook for 15 minutes or until done.
4. Meanwhile melt the chocolate using a double boiler.
5. Spread the melted chocolate into the baked pastry tart, sprinkle with almonds and drizzle with honey.

The End.

Am I dreaming? I’m all but certain I had a nightgown made of that prop fabric (white calico on dark brown ground) growing up. Like a blast from the past, seeing it here…
