January 19th 2015 - nutella pastries

January 19th 2015 - nutella pastries

Today I decided to try and make these nutella pastries. They look really nice and they don't look very hard to make.

First off I cheated as I used shop-bought pastry (me and cakes/pastry etc don't go very well together, despite my wanting them to).  I COVERED the worktop in flour, only for the pre-made pastry to be on a nice grease proof sheet!  never mind!

I then cut them into squares (of sorts more like 4 sided shapes than squares), maybe i should use a piece of cardboard as a guide next time - next time she says, don't even no if they have worked this time yet!!!  Onto each "shape" I placed a dollop of nuttela chocolate spread.


From here I folded them into "triangle type shapes", would have been easier if they had been proper squares, but its pastry and mouldable, so I mad them as triangles.  A few had a bit too much chocolate and it squeezed out abit but you can never have too much chocolate right???  They then went into the oven to cook.


Well they haven't quite worked as my pastry was puff pastry not shortcrust so they have expanded and gone all fluffy! LOL!.  So I will have to try again using shortcrust pastry, i'm hoping that once they cooled down will still taste nice.
