Equipment
- 1 Silicon Mat (Parchment Paper)
- 1 Sharp Knife
- 1 Chopping board
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Frozen Puff Pastry thawed, Note 1
- ½ cup Nutella Note 2
- ¼ cup Pistachio Nuts crushed into pieces, Note 3
- 1 tbs Icing Sugar sifted, Note 4
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C / 350-375°F / Gas Mark 4-5.
- Remove frozen puff pastry from the freezer and set on the bench to thaw.
- Working one by one, place thawed puff pastry sheet onto a chopping board and use a butter knife to spread a layer of the Nutella. Note 4, 5
- Starting at one edge, roll the pastry sheet tightly. Wrap in cling wrap and freeze for 30 mins. Note 6
- Remove pastry from the freezer, place on chopping board and use a sharp knife to cut into portions.
- Transfer the cut pinwheels to the silicon baking mat (or parchment paper). Place the tray into the oven and allow the scrolls to bake for 15 - 20 mins.
- When the timer is up, check that the pastries are done, then turn the oven off, but leave the tray in so that the scrolls can start to cool.
- After 5 mins, use an oven mit and remove tray from the oven. Use a flat flexible turner and lift the Nutella puff pastry pinwheels onto a cooking rack.
- Sprinkle with sifted icing sugar and crushed pistachios.
Notes
- Note 1 Store bought frozen puff pastry squares are recommended. They will be readily available at your local supermarket in the freezer section.
- Note 2 Or alternative name chocolate spread/hazelnut spread.
- Note 3 You can also use granulated nuts or crushed hazelnuts.
- Note 4 Also known as confectioner's sugar. I recommend sifting this to remove and lumps or bumps. You can use cocoa powder if you prefer.
- Note 4 Using a butter knife will ensure that you don't accidently poke holes in the pastry as the edge is blunt.
- Note 5 Keep an imaginary slight boundary so that the Nutella stays within the pastry, not right to the edges. This will ensure it doesn't ooze out too much.
- Note 6 This is not an essential step. If you are in a hurry, you can skip it. It is, however, useful to ensure tight mini scrolls and a neater result.
