Flavorful
Description

Yes, you can use a roll of the best store-bought pie dough instead of puff pastry if you prefer. Follow the baking directions on the package.

Ingredients
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 3 tablespoons nutella
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons grated orange zest
  • 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • additional nutella, optional
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a small bowl, whisk egg with water.
  2. Unfold puff pastry; cut into 9 squares. Place 1 teaspoon Nutella in center of each; sprinkle with orange zest. Brush edges of pastry with egg mixture. Fold 1 corner over filling to form a triangle; press edges to seal. Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet.
  3. Bake until pastry is golden brown and cooked through, 17-20 minutes. Cool slightly.
  4. In a small bowl, mix confectioners' sugar, orange juice and orange zest; drizzle over pies. If desired, warm additional Nutella in a microwave and drizzle over tops.
