The crispy, golden "crox wheel" has won the hearts of gourmets all over the world, particularly in New York.

Ingredients:
- 2 puff pastries
- 300 g vanilla pudding
- 60 g pistachio cream
- 200 g raspberries
- chopped pistachios
- 200 g milk chocolate
Preparation:
Step 1. Unroll the puff pastry on the counter and cut it into long strips.
Step 2. Combine the strips, making one long strip from each sheet. Wrap them into a spiral and place them on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a round cutter on the dough to retain the shape of the pastry. Put it in an oven preheated to 200°C for about 20 minutes.
Step 3. Transfer the vanilla pudding to a bowl. Add pistachio cream or paste to it, mix thoroughly, and transfer to a piping bag. Use a knife to score the baked and cooled rolls and fill them with the prepared mixture.
Step 4. Melt the chocolate in a water bath and dip part of the roll with filling in it.
Step 5. Crush the raspberries and drizzle them over the prepared rolls. Enjoy!
