Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
1. Cut the each chocolate bar into six 2x3/4-inch pieces.
2. Unfold the puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Cut it into 12 squares.
3. Lay 1 chocolate piece on the edge of a pastry square and roll up the dough tightly, completely enclosing the chocolate. Repeat with remaining pastry.
4. Place the rolls on a baking sheet, seam side down. (Can be made 1 day ahead to this point. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
5. Preheat oven to 400°F. 6. Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 15 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.
