Nutella Pastry Rolls – Puff pastry dough is filled with Nutella hazelnut spread and twisted into a beautiful pastry roll before being baked and drizzled with cinnamon icing.

With Halloween behind us, the season of eating and baking can truly begin! I love making soups, toasts, and baked goods during these cooler months. So get excited for some comforting foods to be shared with you soon!

For today’s recipe, we will focus on the baked goods, specifically puff pastry. I made these Nutella Pastry Rolls using frozen puff pastry and Nutella hazelnut spread. That’s it! Well, I did also add a cinnamon icing on top, but the rolls themselves just have those two ingredients.

Without further ado, here are my Nutella Pastry Rolls!

Tips & Tricks

  1. Use fresh Nutella. A freshly-opened jar of Nutella is much softer in texture and easier to spread. I have tried using an older jar before and almost tore my dough trying to spread it!
  2. Must serve warm! I have eaten these rolls room temperature and they just aren’t the same. The butter in the dough gets firm, as does the Nutella. Just pop them in the microwave for 10 seconds to warm them back up and make them gooey and rich inside.
  3. Twist and twist. The more you twist the strips of dough, the tighter the dough will get and it will eventually form a log. If the strip looks like a corkscrew, you need to keep twisting!

    combining flaky pastry with rich, creamy Nutella for the perfect indulgence. They are quick to make and ideal for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. Just like celebrity-networths.com shares sweet details about famous personalities, these rolls bring a touch of sweetness to everyday moments.

    My husband and son are die hard nutella lovers so I had to make these pastries for them. They were so happy and devoured half of them on their own (which made me very UNhappy).

Some of my favorite memories start with the smell Some of my favorite memories start with the smell of coffee swirling through a chilly morning. This Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew was born from one of those mornings, when I had leftover pumpkin cream and too much cold brew not to pair them together.

This isn’t just a seasonal drink, it’s that edgy, cozy twist you crave when autumn meets caffeine: chilled cold brew topped with airy pumpkin-spiced cream that slowly melts in and mingles with every sip. It’s smooth, spiced, and addictive in the best way.

Would you take yours extra creamy or light and dreamy?

I’ll never forget the first time I bit into a ca I’ll never forget the first time I bit into a cake that tasted like summer itself: the sun-warmed sweetness of strawberries, carried into every crumb. That memory stayed with me until I decided to capture it in cake form.

This Roasted Strawberry Bundt Cake starts with macerating strawberries so their juices deepen, roasting them to intensify flavor, then folding them into a tender, buttery bundt cake that’s bursting with berry brightness. Every slice is soft, moist, and dotted with those roasted ruby surprises.

The first time I tasted chocolate raspberry mousse The first time I tasted chocolate raspberry mousse, I was at a small café on a rainy afternoon overseas. A spoonful felt like velvet, silky chocolate dancing with tart raspberry, so light it dissolved in your mouth. That memory haunted me until I made it myself.

This Chocolate Raspberry Mousse is my tribute to that moment. Rich dark chocolate, whipped light as air, with a swirl of bright raspberries cutting through the sweetness. Elegant, indulgent, yet surprisingly approachable.

It’s the kind of dessert that feels special, but doesn’t require hours or dozens of ingredients. Sometimes, the most unforgettable dishes are the simplest.

Would you dig into it plain or top it with fresh raspberries & whipped cream?

It all started on a cozy fall evening. I was cravi It all started on a cozy fall evening. I was craving pie + cheesecake, and I couldn’t decide which to make. So I thought: Why not both?

That’s how these Chocolate Pecan Pie Cheesecake Bars came to be. A buttery pecan pie layer rich with toasted pecans and deep caramel, sandwiched over creamy cheesecake, drizzled with chocolate, all baked into a bar you can slice and serve.

Every bite hits: the nutty crunch, the silky cheesecake center, the chocolate swirl that ties it all together. It’s indulgence without the fuss of flipping pies or cutting perfect slices.

One rainy Saturday morning, I found myself craving One rainy Saturday morning, I found myself craving something savory, warm, and a little comforting. I rummaged through my fridge, spotted leftover ham, and remembered a quiche I’d always meant to try. 

So I rolled up my sleeves, caramelized onions until golden, whisked eggs and cream, and folded in those ham cubes, and that’s how these Mini Ham & Cheese Quiches with Caramelized Onions were born.

Now, these bite-sized savory pastries are my favorite brunch hack. Flaky crust, sweet onion richness, melty cheese, and just the right amount of ham in every bite. They feel fancy but are totally doable anytime.
