Prep Time: 15 mins • Cook Time: 45 mins • Total Time: 1 hour • Makes: 7 trees
INGREDIENTS
- 2 sheets puff pastry dough (7.3 oz), thawed
- 1/4-1/3 cup of chocolate spread such as Nutella
- powdered sugar for dusting
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out 2 sheets of thawed puff pastry. Spread a generous layer of chocolate spread onto one of the puff pastry sheets, covering all corners. Then, add the second sheet on top.
- Use a pizza cutter to make 1-inch wide strips. Save the last end piece for making the stars.
- Roll up a strip of dough accordion-style with a minimum of four layers. Work the layers from a wide tree base to a shorter piece at the top.
- Using a wooden skewer, thread through the center of each dough tree, then place each one on the prepared baking sheet.
- Using a small star cookie cutter, cut out stars on the last strip of dough. Add the star to the top of the skewer of each tree. Bake for 40-45 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
