Nutella Puff Pastry Braid
In our house, we call this an “anytime” treat. It’s like dessert meets breakfast meets a grab-and-go favorite. I love that I’m able to make this using a pre-made puff pastry. It really cuts down on the amount of prep time that I have to do!
The kids also say that this reminds them of a type of carnival food – and I’m always okay with that! I love carnival sweets and treats as they’re just meant to be enjoyed without worry or guilt!

How To Make Nutella Bread

Unroll the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and roll out until flat and even.
Combine the cream cheese and Nutella in a small bowl.
Spread the mixture along the center of the pastry sheet.
Top with mini chocolate chips.
Use a knife to cut slits along both sides of the filling.
Braid the side strips over the top of the filling.

You can easily make this as sweet as you want – or not!
What is the best way to store this simple dessert bread?
The goal is to keep any leftovers as fresh as possible for as long as possible. The easiest way to do this is to store it in an airtight container.
You can also keep this dessert at room temperature, which means that you don’t have to make space for it in the fridge.
Can I add anything else in with the Nutella?
Your choice! The kids think that adding in some chocolate chips would be a great idea – and maybe they’re right! You could also mix in some peanut butter with the Nutella as well for a really fun and delicious taste.
