Chocolate Croissants - Tres Magnifique!

I have made chocolate croissants for breakfast two days in a row. I had to do something with the extra ganache I made the other day. Neither the kids nor Omid has complained about breakfast. I may have to take these to the next potluck too. They are so easy and delicious.
I made an extra batch to give to a friend who needs some TLC right now.
Tucked inside valentine baggies.

Directions on how to bake them (they taste best right out of the oven).

I snagged one of Nas' valentines and made a little flag (Hope you are feeling better!).

Chocolate Croissants
1 package Pillsbury Croissants
1 recipe ganache

For the ganache, I melted 2 t butter, 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/3 c whipping cream (+ more if the chocolate ends up dry). You want a smooth, glossy chocolate. I refrigerated the leftover ganache (it will turn to fudge!). For the croissants, spread the ganache over the unrolled croissants and baked them for 11 minutes at 375*.
