Ingredients

For the Croissants

  • 4 large butter croissants

For the Vanilla Cream Filling

  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 oz (115 g) mascarpone cheese or cream cheese (optional, for a thicker filling)

For the Chocolate ‘Hair’

  • 4 oz (115 g) dark chocolate (60–70% cocoa)
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable oil (optional)

Optional Garnishes

  • Powdered sugar
  • Chocolate drizzle
  • Cocoa powder

Step 1: Make the Cream Filling

  • In a chilled bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • Whip until soft peaks form.
  • If using mascarpone or cream cheese, beat it separately until smooth, then fold it into the whipped cream.
  • Refrigerate while preparing the chocolate strands.

Step 2: Create the Chocolate Strands

  • Melt the dark chocolate gently using a microwave or double boiler.
  • Stir in the optional teaspoon of oil for a smoother texture.
  • Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or a small plastic bag with a tiny corner snipped off.
  • Pipe extremely thin lines onto a parchment-lined tray, making tangled, hair-like strands.
  • Place the tray in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
  • Carefully lift the strands from the parchment paper and gently break them into loose bundles.
