Description
Magical Nutella Puff Pastry Stars
Ingredients
-
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed but still cold
-
⅓ cup Nutella (or hazelnut spread)
-
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
-
Powdered sugar, for dusting
-
1 star-shaped cookie cutter (~3-inch size)
Instructions
-
Prep: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.
-
Roll & Cut: Lightly flour surface, roll pastry to smooth creases. Cut out star shapes with cutter (you need an even number).
-
Fill: Place half the stars on the baking sheet. Add 1 tsp Nutella to the center of each, leaving a border.
-
Seal: Top with remaining stars. Press edges with a fork to seal.
-
Egg Wash: Brush tops with beaten egg (avoid drips down the sides).
-
Bake: Bake 12–15 min, until puffed and golden. Cool 5–10 min.
-
Finish: Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
-
Don’t overfill—1 tsp Nutella per star is plenty.
-
Keep pastry cold for best puff. Chill assembled stars for 10 min if needed.
-
To freeze: Assemble stars (unbaked), freeze on tray, then store in a bag. Bake from frozen, adding 2–4 min.
