Croissants
Roll the dough out to a rectangle of 20 x 100 cm on a surface that has been lightly dusted with flour. Cut the edges straight.
Using a pizza wheel of sharp knife, cut triangles with a base of 12 cm. Start at the base and roll the triangles up to form croissants.
Place the croissants on a greased baking try. Wisk the egg yolk and milk together and brush the croissants with the egg wash. 
Leave in a warm spot for 30—45 minutes until the dough has risen to almost double in size. 
Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
Bake for 18—20 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.
Transfer the croissants to a wire rack and let it cool down.
 
Filling
Spoon the Clover Bliss Chocolate Dairy Dessert into a piping bag. Make a small hole at the bottom of each croissant and pipe about two tablespoons of the chocolate dairy dessert inside each. Drizzle the croissants with melted chocolate.
