- Be sure to line your baking sheet with parchment paper so you don’t have a mess to clean up later.
⁉️ FAQ
Do you have questions about this recipe? Here are the answers to the most commonly asked questions.
Nutella is a sweetened hazelnut and cocoa spread.
Not in the slightest. Its hazelnut content is very low, and it’s mostly palm oil and sugar. It’s delicious, though!
You probably put too much Nutella on the dough before rolling. You only need a thin layer to get all that great Nutella flavor.
The egg wash is what gives your crescent rolls that beautiful golden brown color.
