Description
A beautiful and festive Nutella Christmas Wreath made from puff pastry twisted with a rich Nutella filling and baked until golden, perfect as a holiday dessert centerpiece.
Ingredients
- Puff pastry sheets – 2
- Nutella – 1/2 to 3/4 cup
- Egg (for egg wash) – 1
- Powdered sugar – for dusting (optional)
- Crushed hazelnuts – 2 tbsp (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Lay out the first puff pastry sheet on the tray and spread an even layer of Nutella over the entire surface.
- Place the second puff pastry sheet on top, aligning the edges.
- Using a sharp knife, cut a large circle (you can use a plate as a guide). Remove excess pastry.
- Cut a smaller circle in the center to form a donut shape.
- Make evenly spaced cuts around the ring, slicing from the outer edge to the inner circle to create strips.
- Twist each strip 1–2 times to reveal the Nutella layers.
- Brush the wreath with beaten egg for shine.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
- Dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle with crushed hazelnuts before serving if desired.
Notes
- Keep the puff pastry cold for easier twisting.
- Add cinnamon to the Nutella for extra holiday flavor.
- Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
