Deliciously simple Nutella Crescent Rolls featuring flaky, buttery crescent dough filled with rich, creamy Nutella and optionally topped with chopped hazelnuts, powdered sugar, or melted chocolate for an irresistible treat perfect for breakfast or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Nutella Crescent Rolls

  • 1 can refrigerated crescent rolls (8 oz)
  • 1/3 cup Nutella (or Homemade Nutella)

Optional Toppings

  • Chopped hazelnuts
  • Powdered sugar
  • Melted chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Crescent Dough: Open the refrigerated crescent roll dough and gently break it apart along the seams to separate into triangle shapes.
  3. Add Nutella Filling: Spread about two teaspoons of Nutella evenly onto each crescent dough triangle, making sure not to overfill to avoid oozing during baking.
  4. Add Optional Toppings: If desired, sprinkle chopped hazelnuts or other toppings onto the Nutella layer for added texture and flavor.
  5. Roll Crescents: Carefully roll each triangle up from the wide end to the narrow end to form crescent rolls, ensuring the filling stays inside.
  6. Bake Rolls: Place the rolled crescents onto the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 12 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
  7. Finish and Serve: Once baked, optionally drizzle with melted chocolate and dust with powdered sugar for a decorative and sweet finish. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Store leftovers in a covered container at room temperature; refrigeration is not necessary.

Notes

  • For a crunchy texture, sprinkle chopped hazelnuts before rolling the crescent dough.
  • These rolls are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  • For a fancier presentation, drizzle melted chocolate after baking and dust with powdered sugar.
  • An air fryer can also be used to bake these crescent rolls; cook at 350°F for about 8-10 minutes and check for doneness.
