Description

These Chocolate Strawberry Croissant Sandwiches are the ultimate quick treat for breakfast or dessert: flaky butter croissants are filled with creamy chocolate hazelnut spread and juicy fresh strawberries, then finished with a delicate dusting of powdered sugar for irresistible bakery flair. A no-bake delight that feels luxe but comes together in just 10 minutes—perfect for brunch, snacking, or satisfying your sweet tooth at any time.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Croissants & Filling

  • 4 all-butter croissants, sliced in half lengthwise
  • 1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread (or any rich chocolate spread)
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced

Topping

  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Croissants: Gently slice each croissant horizontally, being careful not to cut all the way through. This creates a pocket for the filling while keeping the croissants intact and easy to handle.
  2. Spread the Chocolate: Using a knife, generously spread chocolate hazelnut spread onto the bottom half of each croissant. Ensure the entire surface is covered for maximum flavor in every bite.
  3. Add Strawberries: Evenly layer the fresh strawberry slices over the chocolate spread. Arrange them to cover the surface so each bite includes fruit and chocolate.
  4. Assemble the Sandwich: Gently close each croissant, leaving the filling slightly visible for a tempting, stacked appearance. Press lightly so the croissant holds together but does not squish the filling out.
  5. Finish & Serve: Using a fine sieve or sifter, lightly dust the tops of the assembled croissants with powdered sugar for a beautiful, bakery-style look. Serve immediately for the flakiest texture, or refrigerate up to 4 hours before enjoying.

Notes

  • Use ripe, sweet strawberries for best flavor—out-of-season berries can be macerated with a pinch of sugar to boost sweetness.
  • Brioche buns or soft rolls can be substituted for croissants in a pinch, though the texture will differ.
  • If preparing ahead, assemble up to 4 hours in advance, but dust with powdered sugar just before serving to prevent melting.
  • Try swapping in raspberries or sliced bananas for a fun flavor twist.
  • The croissants are best enjoyed the day they’re made for maximum flakiness.
