The annual slapstick comedy of me attempting to make breakfast pastries in the oven commences. This year, it’s not croissants-in-a-can, it’s pain-au-chocolat-in-a-box.
I am hopeful.
I am filled with a desire to eat the raw dough.

@meljoann ohhh a little tiny tiniest bitsy bit won't kill anyone, will it
The instructions are inscrutable
@meljoann it simply cannot be scruted

This has occurred. This always occurs.
@meljoann quite the unboxing 😅
@meljoann Yes, it does!
Result. Pains au chocolats are easier to roll up than croissants.
Seven minutes of cooking time. My Xmas pastry hopes are dashed.
The result of my Herculean effort. A photo of the pastries after a mere 7 minutes in the oven. Burned, bulging, pastries; chocolate exposed like its grisly internal organs after some kind of experimental operation
A photo of the instructions, clearly stating 12-15 minutes of cooking time are required for delicious, perfectly golden brown pain au chocolat
