Nutella Brioche Star Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Roll out 1 puff pastry sheet and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Spread chocolate-hazelnut spread evenly onto puff pastry with the back of a spoon. Roll out the second sheet of puff pastry and place on top.
• Place a glass or Mason jar face-down in the center of the puff pastry. Cut pastry into 4 equal strips with a sharp knife, stopping at the border of the glass. Cut through each quarter again, making 8 strips, and again, ending up with a total of 16 equal parts, while keeping the center intact. Twist 2 parts away from each other; pull outward and seal seams together. Repeat with the rest of the parts until pastry resembles a star.
• Brush top with beaten egg.
• Bake in the preheated oven until puffy and golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool slightly, about 5 minutes, before serving.

Steps:

• Mix the flour, salt and sugar in a bowl. Pour in the yeast, add the egg and melted butter. Mix with a spatula gradually incorporating the warm milk.
• Knead until the dough is soft, and not sticky (additional flour or milk may be needed.) Cover with a clean cloth and let rise until doubled, about 2 hours, up to overnight.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 8" x 16" rectangle.
• Spread dough with a thin layer of nutella, leaving a 1" border around the edges. Roll up lengthwise (like a cinnamon roll) and slice into 1.5" rounds. Arrange on a pan, and let rise 1 hour. Brush with honey and sprinkle with almond slivers.
• Bake at 400* for 10-20 minutes, until golden. Enjoy warm.
