Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Begin by thawing the puff pastry if it is frozen. When ready, roll it out on a lightly floured surface to make it easier to work with.
Step 2: Spread Peanut Butter
Use a spatula to spread an even layer of peanut butter over the surface of the prepared puff pastry.
Step 3: Add Nutella
Next, spoon Nutella over the peanut butter layer. Use the spatula to gently spread it out, ensuring both spreads cover the pastry evenly.
Step 4: Roll the Pastry
Starting from one end, roll the puff pastry tightly into a log shape. Make sure to keep it as tight as possible to maintain the shape.
Step 5: Slice the Roll
Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the log into equal-sized pieces, about 1 to 1.5 inches thick.
Step 6: Prepare for Baking
Place the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each piece to allow for spreading during baking.
Step 7: Bake
Bake in a preheated oven according to the recipe instructions, watching for a golden-brown color to indicate they are done.
Step 8: Cool and Serve
Once out of the oven, allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
