1 large egg

# Steps to Cook:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
Unroll the thawed puff pastry on a clean surface and use a heart-shaped cutter to cut at least 6 hearts. Place hearts on the prepared baking sheet and chill for 10 minutes.
03 -
Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of Nutella on half of the chilled puff pastry hearts, avoiding the edges to prevent leakage.
04 -
Top each Nutella-covered heart with another heart-shaped pastry, gently pressing and crimping edges with a fork to seal.
05 -
Whisk the egg with water to create an egg wash. Brush evenly over the tops of the assembled pastries.
06 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
07 -
Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Optionally dust with powdered sugar and serve with fresh berries or whipped cream.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
For best results, do not overfill the pastry to prevent Nutella from leaking during baking. Puff pastry should be cold to maintain flakiness.
