Nutella Pastry Christmas Tree

 With Christmas fast approaching, what better way to get into the festive season by making your own nutella pastry Christmas tree. On this post, I will be showing you a step by step guide on how to make your own indulgent nutella Christmas tree which is easier to make than you think. They require only a handful of ingredients as shown by the image below.

To make your nutella pastry christmas tree:

Pre-heat your oven to 375F/190C/ Gas Mark 5

Roll out one puff pastry sheet into a large rectangle and place on your prepared baking sheet/tray.

 

Lightly score your puff pastry into the shape of a Christmas tree (triangle) similar to the image below

 

Spread nutella spread over the triangle in a thin layer with your spoon

 

Roll out your second sheet of puff pastry to a large rectangle and place on top of the first one.

 

Carefully trace the shape of the nutella covered triangle underneath

 

Cut out the Christmas tree shape and the trunk and pull away any excess pastry

 

Cut branches into the sides of the triangle

 

Twist the branches away from you, trying to get in 2 turns on the lower branches. Continue moving up the tree, twisting away from you as you go.

 

Cut a small star out of your excess pastry and place on top of your tree.

OPTIONAL: Brush your star and tree with a beaten egg

 

Bake in the preheated oven until puffy and golden brown for 12 to 15 minutes. 

Cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
