Say HELLO to your new favorite pastry: Nutella rolls!Warm, soft and comforting on the outside, smooth and chocolaty on the inside.This is what dreams are made of.
Nutella has taken the world by storm in the past few years.Nowadays, everywhere you look there is a recipe forNutella this or that. I’ll tell you a secret though…The idea behind Nutella isn’t new.As kids living in Europe, we’ve been eating our bread with chocolate for ages.In
addition, seeing how crazy we were about the chocolate topping, our
moms started coming up with different ways they could incorporate it
into dishes. One of these recipes are “buhtle sa eurokremom,” or Nutella rolls for short. If you’ve made any type of rolls before, Nutella rolls won’t be new for you either.And if you haven’t, not to worry.As always I break it down below so you can follow the photos and make the exact same rolls.And the dough making process is the same for all dough-y thingswhether you’re making bread, orother types of pastries. Nutella rolls are versatile.They can comprise a (very sweet) small meal, or be a pastry to go along with your coffee.They’re
best warm, right out of the oven, when you break one open and on one
end is the hot air rushing out, and on the other side a very smooth
chocolate is running down the bread.

Category:Pastry
Ingredients
1 tablespoonbaker’s yeast
1 tablespoonsugar
2.5 cups white flour
1 teaspoonsalt
2eggs plus 1 yolk
9 ounces warm milk
10 ounces Nutella or chocolate spread
4 ounces butter

Instructions
Combine yeast and sugar with a little bit of warm water and set aside for 10 minutes.
In a bowl combine flour, salt, 2 eggs, yeast mix, and milk.Work the ingredients with your hand (about 7-10 minutes) until you get a smooth and elastic ball of dough.Dab with oil and set aside for 45-60 minutes or until it doubles.
Sprinkle your working area with flour and take the dough ball out.Work it with your hands (about 5 minutes), and start spreading it out with a rolling pin.When the dough is about the thickness of your forefinger, cut into 4-5 inch squares.(An easy way to do this is to cut stripes in one direction first, and then cut across.)Put one tablespoon of Nutella in the middle of each dough square.Take one end of the square and “cover” Nutella with it.Then take the end and place on top of the first.This way you will get a little roll with Nutella on the inside.Repeat until you make rolls out of all squares.
Oil
a 9×13 inch (or similar) baking pan and place rolls inside making sure
the “connected” side of each roll is on the bottom so it doesn’t open
during baking.Mix the egg yolk until it’s smooth then paint each roll with it.Leave rolls aside for 30 minutes.
Heat oven to 390F.Put one teaspoon of butter on each roll.Bake for 20-25 minutes, turning around the pan about halfway through.(Optional) Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Notes
You’ll get about 18-20 rolls this way, and serving size is about 2 per person.
