  • Yield: 8 rolls 1x

Description

Golden, flaky crescent rolls filled with gooey Nutella and optionally topped with powdered sugar and hazelnuts. This easy 5-ingredient dessert is perfect for parties, brunches, or a quick sweet treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/2 cup Nutella (or other chocolate hazelnut spread)
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped hazelnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  3. Unroll crescent dough onto a clean surface and separate into triangles.
  4. Spread about 1 tablespoon Nutella on each triangle, leaving a small border.
  5. Sprinkle chopped hazelnuts over Nutella if using.
  6. Roll up each triangle from the wide end toward the tip and place tip-side down on the baking sheet.
  7. Brush tops with melted butter.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
  9. Let rolls cool on the pan for 3-5 minutes.
  10. Dust with powdered sugar using a small sieve.
  11. Serve warm, optionally garnished with extra hazelnuts.

Notes

Don’t overfill with Nutella to avoid leaks. Use parchment paper for easy cleanup. For gluten-free or vegan options, substitute dough and spread accordingly. Rolls can be made ahead and refrigerated before baking. Reheat leftovers in the microwave for 10 seconds to restore gooeyness.
