Method

Roll out pastry and cut into four rectangles approximately 10cm x 15cm. Sprinkle 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips in a line at one end of each rectangle and roll pastry once over the chocolate. Sprinkle another line of chocolate chips along the pastry and finish rolling the pastry until it is all rolled up. Place on a greased baking tray and set aside for 30 minutes to rise while you make the meringue.
Meringue: Beat egg whites until peaks form. Turn whisk down to low and gradually sprinkle caster sugar into egg whites, beating until the meringue is glossy and sugar is dissolved.
Brush each pastry with egg, place trays into a preheated 220°C oven and bake for 18-20 minutes. When dough is almost cooked, remove from oven and spread with a layer of meringue. Sprinkle with sliced almonds and return to oven.
Once cooked and meringue is lightly coloured, remove from oven, brush with apricot glaze then transfer to a cooling rack.
To finish: Fill a piping bag with crème Patisserie. Once pastry is cool, cut in half lengthwise and pipe cream onto base, place other half on top and dust with icing sugar.
