Arby’s Chocolate Turnovers Ingredients

• Pillsbury Crescent rolls: Flaky, buttery dough perfect for easy homemade turnovers.
• Chocolate chips: Sweet chocolate morsels that melt into gooey filling.
• Butter: Adds rich flavor and golden, crisp finish.

How to Make Arby’s Chocolate Turnovers Recipe

Step One: Start by laying out your croissant dough on a clean surface. Unroll and separate the triangles if you’re using a pre-rolled dough. Roll it out and cut it into triangles if it’s homemade dough. Preheat your air fryer to 320 degrees F (160°C). This temperature allows the croissants to cook thoroughly without burning.

Step Two: Place a small amount of chocolate at the broader end of each dough triangle. Depending on your preference, you can use a few chocolate chips or a small piece of a chocolate bar.

Step Three: Carefully roll the dough from the chocolate-loaded wider end towards the pointed end. Roll it tightly enough to keep the chocolate enclosed but not so tight that the dough tears.

Step Four: Beat an egg in a small bowl. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the top of each croissant with the egg wash. This step gives the rolled croissant a golden, shiny finish. Spray the bake with nonstick cooking spray or line the air fryer basket with parchment paper. Place the unbaked croissants in the basket, set cook time for 8-10 minutes or until the croissants are puffed up and golden brown.

Arby’s Chocolate Turnovers Recipe Tips

• Seal the edges well: Use a fork to crimp the edges of the crescent dough to prevent the chocolate from leaking during baking.
• Don’t overfill: A small amount of chocolate goes a long way. Overfilling may cause the turnovers to burst open.
• Use parchment paper: Line your baking sheet to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
• Customize the filling: Try adding a sprinkle of sea salt, a spoonful of Nutella, or chopped nuts for extra flavor.
• Brush with butter: Brushing the tops with melted butter before baking helps achieve that golden, bakery-style finish.
• Let them cool slightly: Chocolate filling will be very hot—cool for 5 minutes before serving to avoid burns.
• Serve with dipping sauce: Optional but delicious—serve with a drizzle of chocolate syrup or raspberry sauce for a fun twist.

Storing, Freezing & Reheating Instructions

Store leftover chocolate turnovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 4 days. To reheat, warm in the air fryer or oven at 300°F for 3–5 minutes, or freeze them for up to 2 months and reheat straight from frozen.

Arby’s Chocolate Turnovers Recipe FAQ’s​

Can I use puff pastry instead of crescent rolls? Yes! Puff pastry will give you a flakier texture similar to the original Arby’s version. Just adjust the baking time as needed.

What kind of chocolate chips work best? Semi-sweet chocolate chips are classic, but you can use milk chocolate or dark chocolate depending on your preference.

Can I make these turnovers ahead of time? Yes, assemble and refrigerate them up to 1 day in advance. Bake just before serving for the best texture.

Do I need to seal the edges? Yes, press the edges with a fork to prevent chocolate from leaking out while baking.

Can I add anything else inside? Absolutely! Try adding a spoonful of Nutella, peanut butter, or chopped nuts for a fun twist.
