Preheat the oven to 190°C.
Mix the sugar with the cinnamon and set aside.
On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry and cut circles with a diameter of 25 cm. Place the discs on a baking tray and prick the surface with a fork.

For the filling, heat the heavy cream until it comes to a boil and add the chocolate, mixing until fully combined, cool and refrigerate until completely thickened.
Place the previous mixture in the mixer bowl and whip until it doubles in volume. Place in a piping bag with a nozzle.
To assemble, cover one of the puff pastry discs with the chocolate cream and place another disc on top. Repeat until you have 3 layers.
