Nutella Pinwheels

Hey Y'all!
This is a quick
and EASY recipe
for those nights when you're too tired to bake,
but are craving something sweet!


The looong ingredient list:

Prepared Puff Pastry
1/2 cup Nutella
Sugar for Sprinkling
Chopped Hazelnuts {totally optional}


Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Thaw Puff Pastry and place on a floured cutting board. With a rolling pin, roll the pastry out slightly starting in the center and going to the edges. 


Spread Nutella over pastry making sure to go all the way to the edges and sprinkle with the chopped hazelnuts. 


Roll pastry over itself until a log is formed and trim each end. 


Make your slices every half inch and place each cookie on a greased sheet pan. Bake for...


Opps...I completely forgot! I had to pull these right back out of the oven to sprinkle the top of each cookie with a little sugar for extra crunch! It's a must, I promise!


Okay, now bake for 14-16 minutes, or until the cookies have doubled in size and the edges are brown. Let cool and enjoy!


These dainty little morsels of goodness are nutty, chocolatey, chewy, crunchy and fabulous all at the same time!  ;)  Just be sure not to over bake - every oven is a little different, so keep an eye on them. These are perfect when still a little chewy in the center!

But, the BEST PART is how incredible simple they are to make! I bet you have the ingredients in your kitchen right now...doncha!?
