This is my writing debut for the Recipes of our Lives! I Hope you like this Recipe!!
Chocolate-raspberry Turnovers
1 Package (6 oz) fresh raspberries (about 1 cup)
3/4 cup bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup seedless raspberry jam (make sure its seedless or you will have to pick seeds out of your teeth for weeks! :)
2 tubes (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent dough.
1 egg
1. Heat oven to 375. line two baking sheets with nonstick foil or regular foil coated with nonstick spray. set aside.
2. In a bowl, combine raspberries, chocolate chips and the jam. stir to combine, breaking up raspberries slightly and coating the chips with jam.
3. On a lightly floured surface, unroll one tube crescent dough and separate into 4 rectangles. pinch together any perforations or holes in dough. ** This is very important, i didn't close the holes good enough and i have filling coming out everywhere! :) . Spoon two spoon fulls of the filling onto half of rectangle. ** i have found that it turns out better when you don't over do it with the filling.
4. whisk egg with 1 Tablespoon of water. brush dough edges with the egg wash. fold dough to enclose filling. seal edges; crimp with a fork. Place on the prepared baking sheet. pierce turnover once or twice to vent; brush top with egg wash. repeat with remaining dough and filling.
5. bake at 375 for 11 min until golden brown, cool and then serve!
** side note** Chocolate and raspberries have a natural affinity, but strawberries can also taste great. just change the jam to strawberry as well

Okay, why does that have to sound so good! And I don't really like raspberries, but I guess that's always going to happen when you are trying to lose weight. I'm definitely going to try these as a reward for some weight loss!
