Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out one sheet of puff pastry on floured parchment paper into an 11x13 inch rectangle and place it on a baking sheet.
  2. Spread a layer of Nutella hazelnut spread on the pastry, leaving about half an inch of space around the edges.
  3. Place the second sheet of puff pastry over the Nutella layer, sealing the edges together lightly.
  4. Cut out a Christmas tree shape from the layered pastry, creating shallow cuts for the branches while leaving the center intact.
  5. Twist each branch away from the center to give a charming look while securing them to the parchment.
  6. Brush the surface of the pastry with beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
