My husband is on a low-carb diet.
When he tried the Nutella mini croissants that I had made following the recipe in the soon-to-be released Nutella cookbook, he thanked me for only saving him four [because otherwise he’d have eaten a dozen].
I’d say that’s pretty high praise
The book includes recipes for many temptations, such as Salted Caramel Nutella Lollies and Nutella Coulants.
But I chose Nutella Mini Croissants because it was simple enough for my kids to help with.
It sounded tasty, but let’s face it, they all sounded tasty.
Nutella Mini Croissants
I had never used puff pastry before, but it was fairly easy.
It worked better chilled. On our first attempt, the kids spread the Nutella before we cut the pastry.
The spoon went directly into my son’s mouth.
I decided not to share these with my neighbors.
I did a botched job of cutting them.
They tasted great, but they didn’t look like croissants.
The box of pastry came with two sheets, so I made a second batch.
I was thinking about one of our favorite campfire foods, canned croissants cooked on a stick and then filled with Nutella, when I realized that I should be cutting the pastry into triangles.
For kicks, I spread the Nutella after cutting this time—I think it would work just as well either way.
The triangles definitely helped me get the croissant shape. And Bam! We have Nutella Mini Croissants.
These mini-croissants would be great for a fancy brunch or tea party.
I wish we hadn’t eaten them all last night so I could have some today. :]

I may be the last person on the planet that has not tried nutella yet! I must get some!
I haven’t used puff pastry. Those look good. Of course, anything with Nutella looks good to me.
Those look yummy and I always love when the kids can help with a recipe.
My girls LOVE Nutella! I definitely need to pick up this cookbook, though my daughter has created some pretty yummy stuff on her own!
this looks super yummy! I love nutella..put it in a pastry and wow..it will be fantastic.
My daughter would flip for these, she’s a Nutella-aholic!
I make this with my kids all the time its a hit at the house. You can’t go wrong with Nutella.
Gotta love nutella! When I was in Italy chocolate croissants were at every breakfast and what a great way to make them easy at home!
those look so good! I have to find a way to make them gluten free.
I did a superficial search and there are some recipes for gluten free puff pastry. I don’t know if Nutella is gluten free or not though.
These are amazing. I love anything with Nutella in it.
This time I’m not jealous. Because I’m eating Nutella as I type this. LOL
