  • Prepared puff pastry: The flaky foundation of our Nutella puff pastries. Ensure it’s at room temperature for easier handling. 
  • Nutella hazelnut spread: This creamy Nutella is the star, adding that rich, chocolatey flavor we all know and love. 
  • Eggs: A crucial element for the golden egg wash, lending our pastries that irresistible shine and color. 
  • Confectionery sugar: For that final, sweet dusting that makes each bite heavenly. 

Prepping and Assembling

Oh boy, do I have a treat for you today! We’re diving into prepping and assembling our Nutella Puff Pastries, and it’s as easy as pie—or should I say, pastry? First off, crank up that oven to a cozy 350º because we need it preheated and ready to welcome our decadent creation. Now, let’s roll out our store-bought puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. We’re not looking for perfection here; just a simple roll to make the sheets a tad more pliable. And here comes the star of the show – Nutella. Spread that chocolatey goodness all over one sheet with an offset spatula or the back of a spoon, corner to corner, edge to edge. 

Now, here’s where the magic happens – grab your pizza cutter or a sharp knife. We’re making twists or braids, and honestly, either way, you can’t go wrong. Lay another sheet on top, press gently, and slice away. Feeling adventurous? Twist or braid them for that extra flair. But remember, to keep our pastries from sticking, line your baking sheet with parchment paper. It’s a little trick that never fails to give us a non-stick baking experience, ensuring our pastries come out crispy and perfect, without any mess or fuss. 

Baking to Perfection

Now, we’re moving on to the magic part, the baking to perfection. This step is where our flaky puff pastries start to come to life. So, you’ve got your pastry beautifully assembled, and it’s just begging to be turned golden brown. You’re going to take a small bowl, crack that large egg and give it a good whisk. Here’s where your pastry brush steps in – brush that egg wash generously over the top. It’s this egg wash that’s going to give your Nutella puff pastries that irresistible golden glow. Pop them onto your baking sheet and into the preheated oven they go.

I always say, keep a close eye on them. You’re not just baking; you’re conducting a symphony of flavors and textures. And trust me, the moment you see them turn that perfect shade of golden brown, that’s the best part. That’s when you know you’re about to bite into the most crispy, flaky pastry filled with creamy Nutella. It’s such a crowd-pleaser, you’ll want to bake these on repeat. 

Serving and Storage Tips

After you’ve painstakingly twisted and baked your Nutella Puff Pastries to that irresistible golden brown, and trust me, they’re as delectable as they sound, there’s just one more touch needed to elevate their decadent goodness. A gentle dusting of powdered sugar not only adds an extra layer of sweet delight but transforms your pastries into a picturesque treat right out of a dessert magazine. Somehow, it just makes them taste even better – if that’s even possible!

Now, should you find yourself with leftovers, and let’s be real, that’s a big if, the best way to preserve their flaky, crispy magic is by stowing them neatly in an airtight container. This simple step helps them maintain that just-baked texture we all adore. If you want to enjoy them the next day, a quick warm-up in the oven revitalizes them beautifully, making them taste like they’ve come straight out of the oven… again. Honestly, they’re the gift that keeps on giving!

As you present this beautiful creation, your loved ones will be drawn in by the irresistible flavors and eye-catching presentation.

If you’re anything like me, you’ll fall head over heels for these flaky, buttery beauties with that irresistible chocolate-hazelnut spread. But here’s the best part: they’re so simple to whip up. I mean, who knew that with just a rolling pin, some parchment paper, and a little creativity, you could transform a store-bought puff pastry sheet into a dessert that looks like it came straight from a fancy bakery?

And if you’re in the mood to get creative, why not try swapping out the Nutella for raspberry jam or peanut butter? The possibilities are literally endless, and each version is as delicious as the next. Whether you’re prepping for a quiet night in or you need a crowd-pleaser for your next gathering, these pastries are guaranteed to steal the show. 

Let me put it this way: once you’ve made these, you’ll not only impress yourself but everyone else too. Keeping a close eye on them in the oven is key, but after about 15-20 minutes, you’ll pull out golden brown, flaky puff pastries that might just become your new favorite easy dessert.

  • Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Unwrap the thawed puff pastries and, on a clean surface, gently roll both sheets out slightly to get an extra pastry or two. Ensure they are similar in size and not too thin.
  • Spread the hazelnut spread evenly over one puff pastry sheet, covering it to the edges. Place the other puff pastry sheet on top, aligning the corners.
  • Use a pizza cutter to cut even 1/2-inch strips from the sandwiched pastries.
  • Twist each strip and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping them into swirls. Beat the eggs in a small bowl and brush the pastries generously with the egg wash. Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown and flaky.
