Our summer schedule has been anything but ordinary.
Not that it’s a bad thing. I enjoy days when we don’t have a set plan.
We may be sleeping in a bit much:)
Most days we’re eating breakfast when most others are already on lunch.
This makes for hungry tummies around 3p.m.
Too late for lunch, but still a while before dinner.
This nutella braid is my “cheat” for the classic pain au chocolat.
A perfect late-afternoon snack {if you ask me}
This could NOT be any easier.
For the Braid:
1 tube of crescent rolls (we love Trader Joe’s)
nutella or TJ’s chocolate almond spread (you can use as much as you like)
Roll the dough into one rectangle
Cut into three strips
Spread each with nutella
Roll
Braid
Bake @325 for 15-20 minutes
Try not to eat the whole loaf
Enjoy!

About Heather @French Press
Wow. That is so amazing! Now, I wonder if my kid would actually sleep late for the promise of this…
Pinning…yum! I’ll surprise my boys soon with this!
Love the Nutella inside!
Looks delicious! I also use the Trader Joe’s Chocolate Almond spread instead of nutella sometimes. Thanks for stopping by my nutella post – have a great day
Hi! Wonderful recipe. Just one question….do I pinch close the strips to close in the nutella? Or do I braid as the strips are? Thank you posting. Never tried Trader Joe’s cocoa almond spread…will have to try it soon! Thank you.
I didn’t pinch each “rope” , but I did pinch the top and bottom to keep the braid together
Looks great!
Wonderful recipe, I would loooooooove a slice or two (or three…) from this cake
DROOL! You can seriously put nutella on anything and its fantastic! What a pretty presentation this makes too. Can I have a slice?!

thanks – I know – we LOVE nutella
oh I wish I hadn’t seen this, now I am going to be dreaming about it, it looks so good!
I need to surprise my kids with this for lunch…I mean breakfast (we have a cuckoo schedule too!)
Nutella is the bomb! Love how easy it is to make a fun pastry with just 2 ingredients. I make something similar with marshmallow fluff added to it:-)
This looks so easy and super delicious!
I’m a fan of anythng that is made with crescent rolls. I love those things:)
