How to Make Chocolate Turnovers
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Lay one sheet of filo pastry (approximately 14x18 inches), long side facing you, on a flat surface. Keep remaining filo covered with a damp towel and plastic wrap to prevent drying.
- Brush the filo sheet lightly with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
- Top with another sheet of filo and brush with another tablespoon of melted butter.
- Repeat with a third sheet of filo, brushing with 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- Sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Cut the large filo sheets into 4 equal strips, and the smaller sheets into 2 equal strips.
- Spoon a heaping teaspoon (approximately 1 tablespoon) of chocolate chips into the lower corner of each pastry strip.
- Fold the other lower corner over the chocolate chips, then fold up and over as you would a flag to create a triangle shape.
- Repeat with remaining chocolate chips and pastry strips.
- Brush the tops of the turnovers with 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- Place pastries on a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Transfer turnovers to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While turnovers cool, melt the remaining chocolate chips (1/2 cup) with 1 tablespoon of shortening in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled turnovers.
