## 👩🍳 How to Make It
1. **Prepare the custard:** Whisk together eggs, sugar, and cornstarch, then slowly add warm milk and vanilla. Cook gently on the stove until thick and creamy, then set aside to cool.
2. **Bake the puff pastry:** Roll out your puff pastry sheets and cut them into squares or rectangles. Bake in a preheated oven until golden and puffed.
3. **Assemble:** Once the puff pastry is cooled slightly, spoon or pipe the homemade custard onto each piece.
4. **Add the chocolate drizzle:** Melt your chocolate and drizzle generously over the custard-topped pastries.
5. **Optional finishing touches:** Dust with powdered sugar or scatter fresh berries on top for a pop of color and flavor.
