Make sure to pull the puff pastry to thaw at room temperature for about 30 - 45 minutes.

Step 1:  

Preheat the oven to 400 F (204 C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk 1 large egg with 1 tablespoon (15 ml) water to create an egg wash.

Step 2:  

Place the thawed puff pastry onto a lined baking sheet. Gently unfold the puff pastry sheet. Cut the puff pastry into 3 smaller rectangles along the fold lines. Cut a diagonal line from the top left corner to the lower right corner to form 2 triangles from each rectangle.

Step 3:  

Drop 2 - 3 teaspoons ( up to 1 tablespoon, 15 ml) of nutella onto the center of widest side of each triangle. Gently spread the nutella down the center of the triangle from the widest side of the triangle down to the point.

Step 4:  

Starting at the wide side of the triangle, gently roll the dough to the point to form a croissant shape. Don’t worry if some Nutella comes out.

Step 5:  

Lightly brush the tops of the croissants with the a lightly beaten egg.

Step 6:  

Bake the Nutella puff pastry croissants for 18 - 22 minutes or until the pastries are a light golden brown color. Cool the Nutella croissants on the hot baking sheet for 5 minutes, dust with powdered sugar and enjoy.
