How to Make Nutella Crescent Rolls
Step 1
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
Step 2
Assemble the rolls: On each crescent roll triangle, add 1 teaspoon of chocolate hazelnut spread, and using an offset spatula, spread it around evenly, leaving a ½-3/4-inch margin from the edge. Starting from the wide end of the triangle, roll the dough towards the tip and form it into a crescent shape. Place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the other dough triangles.
Step 3
Make the egg wash: In a small mixing bowl, add 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of water, and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, then using a small whisk, combine the mixture together. Using a pastry brush, brush the top of the crescent rolls with the egg wash. Sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Step 4
Bake the rolls: Bake the crescents in your preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until they are slightly golden and crisp to your liking. When they are done, take them out and allow them to cool, and enjoy!
