In the past I have made some yummy nibbles using puff pastry sheets and I'm not one to put off trying new recipes by people telling me I shouldn't. I even once made a sweet focaccia using Mars Bars and sea salt .... it was totally delicious. (check it out HERE). Last year, I made some savoury sausage and cheese pinwheels and they were so good that I made various combinations of sausage, bacon, herbs, cheese and tomatoes. All a big hit with the market stall holders and my family alike and I got to thinking, maybe I could do a sweet version as well.
Cue the chocolate hazelnut spread, chopped nuts, puff pastry and flaked almonds.
Unroll your puff pastry, spread it with chocolate spread ...... plenty of chocolate spread, I used almost a whole jar on half a sheet of puff pastry and go right up to the edge, as you can see, I didn't but I definitely will next time, sprinkle with chopped nuts, roll into a big sausage and cut into slices. Bake in a medium/hot oven until puffed up and crispy. When they're cool, drizzle icing over the top .... I always get a bit carried away with the icing, in my opinion, you can never have enough icing (the same goes for fairy lights and glitter!)..... and sprinkle with nuts. Totally delicious.
oh what a glorious concoction! I was perusing Pinterest earlier on today & there was a pin detailing Nutella inside two pancakes!! xx
ReplyDeleteOh I love Pinterest, I get lost for hours on there :-)
DeleteOh, this sounds so so so good. As luck would have it I have a dollar off coupon for some Nutella burning a hole in my pocket even as we speak. So a tryout of this recipe is definitely in the cards. Must be fate! Too bad my husband doesn't like nuts of any kind and so I will be forced to eat the whole thing! Too bad!
ReplyDeleteYou could always miss out the nut and just do a chocolate spread filling, I just like the extra crunch :-)
DeleteOoh, lush. I wonder if I could make a cinnamon roll version, I will be playing later.
ReplyDeleteA cinnamon version would be lovely. I was actually wondering what it would taste like with a layer of marzipan and some candied peel and dried fruit rolled inside then drizzled with icing :-) I might just have to try it
DeleteOh boy they look good, obviously very healthy with all those nuts! Going to give these a go xxxx
