- 1 Sheet Puff Pastry defrosted
- ⅓ Cup Chocolate Hazelnut Spread (e.g. Nutella)
- 1 Large Egg, lightly whipped For brushing on hearts to seal and prior to baking
- 1 teaspoon Granulated Sugar To sprinkle over hearts prior to baking
- ¼ Cup Chocolate Melted
- 1 Tablespoon Powdered Sugar For sprinkling over hearts
Preheat oven to 400°
Cut twelve 2" hearts from a sheet of defrosted puff pastry.
Fill the center of 6 of the hearts with the chocolate hazelnut spread. Brush the edges with the whipped egg.
Place an unfilled heart over the heart filled with the hazelnut spread. Seal the edges by crimping with a fork.
Lightly brush the top of each heart with the egg wash. Sprinkle with granulated sugar.
Using a knife, create a small slit in the top of each heart (this will allow steam to escape).
Bake for 8 - 10 minutes. Pastries will be golden brown and risen.
Allow pastries to cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and drizzle with melted chocolate.
