HOW TO MAKE CHURRO NUTELLA CHRISTMAS TREE (PASTRY TREE)
Step 1: Using parchment paper or a Silpat mat, line a baking sheet.
Step 2: In a Christmas tree shape, cut out both puff pastry sheets. On one pastry sheet, evenly spread the Nutella and top with the other cut-out sheet of puff pastry.
Step 3: To a baking sheet, transfer the puff pastry sheets with Nutella. On both sides, cut about 1-inch apart or 2 cm slits, leaving the middle intact.
Step 4: Then, twist the strips of pastry twice. Press the ends into the baking sheet, then cut out two-star shapes using the leftover pastry, spreading one sheet with Nutella. On top place the other pastry. On top of the tree, place the star.
Step 5: With the egg yolk mixed with a bit of water, brush the pastry. Place in the oven and bake at 400 degrees F or 200 degrees for about 25 to 30 minutes or until golden.
Step 6: Remove from the oven when done and let the pastry tree cool for about 5 minutes before lightly brushing with the melted butter. Lastly, sprinkle the tree with cinnamon sugar. Enjoy!
