• Bundles:
• 1 sheet puff pastry
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon heavy cream
• 8 chocolate kisses (recommended: Hershey's)
• 8 miniature chocolate candy bars
• Ganache:
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 4 ounces milk chocolate, broken into small pieces
• Sweetened whipped cream, optional
• Fresh strawberries, sliced, for garnish
• Mint sprigs, for garnish

1. Bundles: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Unfold puff pastry and cut the sheet into 2 (4 by 4-inch squares). Beat eggs and cream together to create an egg wash. Brush pastry squares with egg wash. Place 2 chocolate kisses and 1 mini candy bar in the center of each pastry square. Repeat with remaining kisses and mini-bars. Pull corners of the square up around the chocolate, brushing edges with more egg wash, if necessary, to create a secure bundle. Brush exteriors of chocolate bundles with more egg wash. Repeat with remaining bundles.
3. Place bundles on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
4. Ganache:
5. In a sauce pan bring the heavy cream to a boil. Place the chocolate pieces in a bowl and pour hot cream over top. Whisk until smooth.
6. Puddle ganache onto a plate and place 1 bundle on top. Top with whipped cream and additional ganache, if desired.
7. Serve bundles garnished with strawberry slices and mint sprigs
